Engine Start

Ready for my first engine start. Well, actually, it's not the first. I started it last week but the timing was off which made it run rough. With some help from Gafford Aero, I corrected the minor timing problem and now it runs like a sewing machine. No leaks or runs and the only problem is an incorrect oil pressure sensor. Dynon is sending me the correct one so I'm using an external gauge for the oil pressure until it gets here.


Video of the engine start. The prop looks like spaghetti because of the video frame rate of an iphone matches the rpm or something technical like that. Don't worry, it's not melting.
