I have been using the same Kavan starter for my YS engines for about 8 seasons now. It is powered by a 10 cell sub C nicad pack held in special case (see below). The only maintenance so far was a brush replacement, not a difficult job.

I know guys are running geared staters from B&P and PAM, but I can't find starters like those in Canada. My options at the LHS are KAVAN and Sullivan Dynatron. The KAVAN is really compact...but can it turn over a 170? And the Dynatron....I guess I can use it in the weight room after flying. Can you advise which is more commonly used and functions better? Of course if there are other options the Canadians can chime in. Thanks much Colin. <br>
