Default best starter to use for a TT raptor 90

Hi I tried using my torque master 180 but it struggles to get this heli started. What are you using? Thank you

I struggled with my 90 till I bought a Dynatron, which I run on a 6s lipo.
You have to be careful not to hold the switch too long or a fully charged 6s will weld the switch together, making it tough to stop the starter when in place, especially on your own!
Short sharp bursts are fine and start it no trouble.

I have a TorqueMaster 90 with a 5800mah 3s lipo and it works great!

What battery are you using on the Torque Master?

I use an old Sullivan Hi-Torq (yellow label) starter with a 4S LiPo to start my YS 91SR-3DS. It worked fine for my OS 91HZ-R and 91HZ-PS (when I had those)

I change to 3S for my YS 60SR.

I would guess I've been using it on my 91 (OS & YS) for about 7 years.
If I use a 5S or 6S, it spins too fast and I worry I'll burn it out.
