Hello all,
I'm working on my electrical system, specifically control of the ignition sys. I'm going to run a single bendix and a Pmag, and would eventually migrate to two Pmags. I've come up with the following schematic for how I intend on controlling the mags, and enabling a push-button start switch. I searched the archives, but could not find anything similar. I'd appreciate feedback from anyone who has done something similar.

Based on this schematic, here is my procedure for starting, mag checks and shutdown;
START;
PMag: On
LMag :On, momentarily hold up to start position to enable starter
Start Button: Push
MAG CHECK:
Lt Mag: Off (slight drop in RPM)
PMag: Test (No drop)
Shut Down:
Pmag: Off (slight drop in RPM)
Mixture:Cut off
Lt Mag: Off
Again, feedback appreciated. Feel free to use if you find it useful.
