Slick 4300 Series Magneto overview & timing

Filmed on 9-22-21 with the Canon EOS M50

Recently I've been learning about aircraft magnetos in school, and for our midterm we have to disassemble our magneto and time it all within 15 minutes. We each got a magneto for a couple days to practice with and I decided to film a video of myself doing it because why not, and I've had fun messing with these things too.

A magneto is a self-contained electrical device that is used to form and send the spark to the engine in an aircraft with a reciprocating engine.

A reciprocating engine is an engine that the piston "reciprocates" up and down the cylinder to produce power. (Cars, airplanes, lawn mowers, you name it)
