Sullivan dynatron. Can use up to a 6S pack and will start just about anything. Turns over my regulated 91 size engines with ease, even on a cold start. Best 90 bucks I've ever spent!

I might give the Sullivan a try.
My Align starter has worked great for years but my new OS105 is killing my 4S lipo pretty quick. |

When my Align self destructed I went with a Sulivan Dynatron as well. I found that with a 6S pack, if the engine was hydro locked, it would melt the switch contacts together, No damage to the engine, ( it did cause the one way on the Knight to slip a couple times, which sounds really bad!) but it was a bit awkward after pulling the starter out to get it to stop spinning!
So I went with a 5S pack and no more trouble. Now if I have a hydro locked engine, no more drama. The starter just stalls, then I clear the engine, then I fire it up. Al

Sullivan Dynatron here too.
I used a Thunder Tiger starter for a while, with success on .50 sized machines. When I started flying .90s, the Dynatron on 24 volts was needed. Great starter!

+1 on the Sullivan Dynatron.
If you wanna go all out get the Makita battery adapter for it for a really clean look. http://www.afineredgemfg.com/index.htm
