- Hobby Lobby makes a built in starter, but I don't think its big enough
- for an ST4500. You should check it out and see.
-
- I saw an electric starter for large scale engines at the East Coast
- Regional IMAA Fly-In in October. It was made by a company called Likes
- Line.
- I don't have their address or number, but they advertize in the IMAA
- magazine,
- High Flight. They demo'ed their system on a Zenoah G38, so it should be
- able
- to turn over an ST4500. The question is, do they make a version that
- fits it?
- I don't know.
