NOTE: This unit does require a battery on the ignition side

The Magneto Ignition Cutoff provides safety and convenience for your gas powered plane. The Ignition Cutoff provides a way to cut your engine from the transmitter should you experience any trouble with your throttle servo. The unit has two modules that are connected by a fiber-optic cable. There is no electrical connection between your ignition and your radio system. This isolates your receiver from any possible ignition module malfunction which could damage the receiver and take the aircraft down. The unit provides a mean to short the magneto primary coil to ground to kill the engine. The LED on the ignition side is removable and extendable with standard extensions. The LED is not required for the unit to operate properly.

The unit can also be used to optically isolate a function from the radio while providing a means for turning it on/off. The relay contacts can support up to 2 amps of current on each the normally open and normally closed outputs.
