I have it mounted in the cock pit of my wh 88" edge. I love it can see rpms before and right after you land! Thanks for all the info about the rcgf line of engines. I hope they are a great motor another one that is a good motor for a great price is always the out come we like to see!
Well that's good to know. I may still mount it in the Extra. Got to finish testing out the engine first though. I'm not too concerned about the Y connector as it only carries a low voltage signal to the CDI. I was thinking if something happened to the tach itself, but on second thought I guess the Halls sensor would still have direct contact with the CDI and would still keep the engine running.
