Very nicely done. I'm currently learning about these in A&P class and this has been a wonderful help!

[@iteachairframepowerplant]

Thanks! There's an awful lot more to the magneto, I'm glad this "excerpt" was helpful!

Thanks this is very helpful for me as I'm new to the aviation community.

[@iteachairframepowerplant]

Welcome! I will eventually post more that are relative to obtaining the A&P licenses.

Good video, very helpful. Could be helpful to display voltmeter/ammeter settings when in use to display what exactly is being checked. Great job on video!

How to check the primary and secondary coil readings would have been very helpful,thanks for posting

[@iteachairframepowerplant]

Sorry. I'm in-work on an update!

[@fly-n-m9445]

Just sent mine in for a 500 hr. O.H., they found both mags had cracked cases😮

[@iteachairframepowerplant]

Wow...could you tell before removal? Was the engine performance poor or unnoticeable?

[@fly-n-m9445]

@@iteachairframepowerplant Everything was normal, the engine showed nothing. Only thing I noticed was a drop of engine oil after every flight that progressed to a few drops and I think we found the culprit. 😕

[@karga2tilki]

wow.. that means fingers off for me.. only specialist on this ancient "clockwork"..

[@iteachairframepowerplant]

Yep, they are still in use. They're almost like a Timex - takes a licken and keeps on clicking!

[@davidhofman4341]

Slick mags are throw away, one run mags. I have rebuilt 100 or more Bendix 200 and a few 1200 series mags.

[@iteachairframepowerplant]

For training purposes, we tear down for inspection, timing, reassembly, and functional test.

[@not_listening2792]

Slick magnetos are not throw away after one run magnetos. 500 hour inspections can be continued indefinitely. They work fine if properly maintained.

[@rayrodriguez9485]

Where can I buy the tester you are using?

[@iteachairframepowerplant]

I will provide you the info when I'm back at the facility on Monday. Thanks for watching!

[@av8shunaddict106]

Thank you!

[@av8shunaddict106]

Hi, following up on my request for information regarding where I can purchase this mag test equipment.

[@iteachairframepowerplant]

So that smaller nylon gear you see at 1:50 on the left is $180 cdn. So that’s about $132 US. Unbelievable. The points are also ridiculously over priced. They are shooting themselves in the foot by gouging people to the point that they kill general aviation.

[@iteachairframepowerplant]

Try Aircraft Spruce pricing...🤔

[@wlbrobinson]

Yea, I let the customer buy the parts so they can see how expensive this stuff is, I cant mark it up so no reason to keep inventory. what is sad that if you buy the same parts for an old tractor or generator a whole kit would be maybe $100. Sad.

[@cageordie]

Plastic gears? These things are a deathtrap.

Flathead screw and points. Stuck with 50’s technology?
