Brainless Total Loss Systems...

[the WaTeRhAwK]

Here's another one.....

 

[kevbo]

Thats an old KV system. They feature fixed timing and very high current draw.

 

[WFO Speedracer]

You are wrong about the high current draw,my analog MSD draws way more current than my Westcoast dual TL.I rarely even charge the battery on that boat.

 

[sflsurfrider]

genius.

 

[D-Roc]

that is kinda like my dyna total loss i had on my SS 550

 

[the WaTeRhAwK]

I thought they didn't exist.

 

[WFO Speedracer]

They don't exist,my ignition is a total phantom,you can't even see it when you look at my boat,thats mostly because it doesn't exist on the normal plane of reality much the same as Waterhawk..

I mean I thought the brainless TL systems never existed.


terry, none of the stuff we do to these things is "normal".

[the WaTeRhAwK]

exactly charlie. it's not "normal" to store a ski on top of a dryer.

:scratchchin: Interesting; are there any old systems with a set of points and a condenser coil. :crazy:

 

[WFO Speedracer]

I think it might be Abby normal.

i'm running the dyna total loss on my x2

 

[the WaTeRhAwK]

i'm running the dyna total loss on my x2

so, it has no cpu (or brain) controlling the timing, rev limit or anything, and the timing is static set?

 

[madscientist]

static timing, no cpu, energized pick-up, i'm working on building a rev-limiter, on off switch and stock start stop

so, is the wiring layout specific to either of the diagrams I posted, the jetworks instructions, or the kv?

not that I'm aware off, but with enough tinkering, you might be able set one up that way. most of those type of setups are on 4-stroke configurations, i/e, a lawnmower, certain cars engines, etc...

 

[WFO Speedracer]

The Westcoast setup looks just like the KV

 

[madscientist]

it is the kv set up but i removed the stop module and replaced it w/ a bosch relay. is the stock rev limit in the coil pack or that module?

there is no rev limiter built into the coils.
as far as the module goes, it's just a relay telling the coil when to fire. no rev limter.

that "auto cut-off" switch in the KV setup is just a relay to kill the engine when you press the putton, so you don't have to hold the button down until the engine stops.
