8 Multiengine Installation
For multiengine installation, first set up each turbine as per manual, start and run each engine
separately. Then, when the Turbines are starting and running smooth, plug the throttle leads
from each of the POWERPACK / ECU's into a "Y" connector and plug the central lead into
your throttle channel. Now both turbines will start at the same time and shut down at the
same time. This is preferred over individual starting and is a simple way of assuring you're
taking off on both turbines!
Helpful Tips
· If one turbine starts and the other doesn't for any reason, just cycle the throttle again;
the one not running will enter the re-start sequence.
· In multiengine installations always have each turbine with its own complete fuel
system.
· As the POWERPACK / ECU has auto restart feature, if it is required to shut down after
the turbines are running and need to restart quickly, just raise the trim to the ready
position and cycle the throttle, when the auto cool down cycle gets the turbine to a
safe temperature the POWERPACK / ECU will restart the turbines automatically.
· Place on/off switches on the throttle lead before the "Y" connector that plugs the
POWERPACK / ECU's throttle channel into the receiver, this way you can shut off one
turbine or the other on the ground or start one at a time by turning off the engine
desired, it is also helpful if you have a "BAD START" on one turbine to reset the
POWERPACK / ECU.
