Has anyone installed the SureFly electronic ignition system on their RV-10?



Warm regards



Patrick

Second that.  Have about 100 hrs. on the Surefly replacing the right mag.  I removed the jumper on ignition switch that grounds the right mag at startup, so both the left mag with SlickStart and the right Surefly unit are firing at TDC during cranking.  Totally solved my decade-long hot start problem on the IO-540.  CHTs have been normal in all phases of flight, and the bird is about 2 kts faster in cruise.  Effect most noticeable when running above 9K density altitude with MP settings below 22".  Good stuff.

I have over 180 hours on the SureFly electronic ignitions and they have performed well.  So well, I installed 2.  (I have 2 independent electrical systems with 2 alternators and 2 batteries.)

Sorry, no photos.  The installation is easy.  Swap your mag for the unit and add a power source.  Used same harness as the mag.  Can use fine wire Tempest plugs or keep the heavy ones.
