FAQ

The sensor is the device that detects propeller/crankshaft rotation, and sends a signal to the ignition unit, so that the spark plug can be fired at the appropriate time. It is needed, and included with each DLE engine.

It will depend on the propeller brand/style, and also the type of model. 20x10 would be a reasonable starting point.
