Re: Success with LSE Install
Remember your LSE fires each coil twice as often as your mag. It is actually firing each plug on the exhaust stroke in addition to the compression stroke. I’m sure you knew that but it’s easy to

Re: Success with LSE Install
The tach display will have settings for various number of pulses per rev. When you get the right setting your RPM will be correct. It will never be just a bit off. Good luck. You are almost there!

Re: Flight report
Hi Richard,
Did not know you also had a Viggen project. That is unique! I am using Dynon servos and autopilot. So far, so good.
Cheers,
Jay

Re: Success with LSE Install
The tach was reading 2500 which is more than my RPM at rotation. It felt closer to 1000 RPM. My handheld tach couldn't read the reflective tape so it could be it was just too dark last night. I

Re: Success with LSE Install
Can you tell US how mucho higher? If for example it reads at 1.5x 2x etc it may be a setting on your tach display.

Re: Success with LSE Install
Not sure just yet. We just wanted to make sure it would fire up and only tested the MP drop as well as for EMI (have some, unfortunately). The idle is definitely high so in need of adjustment. We

Success with LSE Install
Just a quick video to share that I finally had success with the Lightspeed electronic ignition install.
Sure runs SMOOTH. RPMs were high so I’m hoping that’s just an adjustment on the throttle

Re: Flight report
Hi Richard,
Oddly enough and quite out of character, I did not take any pictures of the install. I only took pictures of the lables, so that I could register warranty on them. I will take some

After simply filing the holes to move the sensor out and up I filled the gap in the enlongated holes with hard gasket maker, then torqued it solid with slightly oversized washers and locking

Re: Electronic Ignition Install - No Spark from Coils
Good point. I should clarify, it is set at .032” with the crankshaft in all the way. I need to measure the gap with it out all the way.

Re: Electronic Ignition Install - No Spark from Coils
There will be a certain amount of play in the crankshaft, so be sure to load the prop forward when you establish your clearance.
