Ok folks the thing is all you need is a SUCCESSFUL spark. It does not
matter if the ignition is caused by a electrical spark or laser. The
important thing is reliability. The motorcycle industry has been changing
to coil-on-plug systems. Remember that many of the sportbikes have redlines
over 13,000 rpm. These coil on plug systems can easily handle our rotary
needs. Using a programer to control spark it would be easy to trigger them,
and you could do a split or same time firing. We don't need bleeding edge
tech. We need easy tech. My Yamaha 1000 uses the coil on plug technology.
It is a 2008 model. We could harvest this tech for our use. The big
advantage is only low-tension switching island needed. Using coil on plug
you would have 4 coils on a 2 rotor. A single failure would only kill one
plug.
