A few testflights had to be cancelled, because one of the two ignitions failed in the run-up before take-off. So far, we could not find the cause of this failure. It does not fail constantly, sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't! We suspect one of the ignition coils. Does anyone recognise this problem?

See this on the 912 all the time. Use a continuity tester with needles to poke through the insulation. Work the wires to find the break. Guy B.

He's one of the old pros of 4 & 2 stroke motors. I'll see if I can find his web site for you.... https://rotaxrick.wordpress.com/ He can help you with just about anything. Best idea is to email him. He stays busy!
