    Helo... if the SHTF scenario involves an EMP type event... what are the chances that that thing will even run? do you have a backup plan?

    That is a good question for Mr. Money-bags!

    It will start, it has a full manual mode. No electronics needed, it would be a pain in the butt to start, but can be done. I have spare parts offshore to do what I need. Other than that, not many options.

    Interesting... and good to know, I didn't know there was such a thing as manual mode on them birds. Do you have to spin the rotor to get it going? (I think I remember reading that some small planes would operate this way)
