Dr. RoTech, Rotax 912 aircraft engine diagnostic tool

I have done a number of interviews with Chris Esposito of the Light Sport Group. Chris's group runs a flight training school in Florida, and produces the A/V ator HD camera which I use for the incabin / in air video shot for www.aircraftreporters.tv.

This year Chris was at the U.S. Sport Aviation Expo with something completely different, a diagnostic tool for use on the Rotax 912 series of aircraft engines.

In essence the unit called Dr. RoTech can be used to test everything on the Rotax electrical system from a cracked or loose wire to a generating or charging coil.

Doing all of the checking while the engine is still mounted on the plane! The device simply plugs into the ignition module, and an LED light indicates green for go, or red for fail.

 
For those that have had to do this process with an OHM meter, you know the kind of time and work involved in removing and installing everything to be able to do the checks. With Dr. RoTech everything can be check in as little as five minutes!

Factory literature indicates that Dr. RoTech can perform all the required measurements of BRP-Rotax 912/914 Heavy Maintenance Manual section 74 paragraph 3.12:

Generator coil (on stator)
Charging coil (on stator)
Trigger coil (A&B)
Primary ignition coil (A&B)
Secondary ignition coil
Spark plug connector
Ignition switch
Engine ground
