Looked for a video like this for 5 years - glad I finally found your channel! I'm a CFI and gonna be showing this to all my future students. Thanks Mario!
WOW!!! THANK YOU! You can’t imagine how many videos I had watched about this subject, and you explained everything in just 3 minutes.... Thank you! Excellent job ⚡️
Fantastic, easy, and clear, the graphics are excellent, please make more videos about Jet aircraft hydraulic, electrical, and pneumatic systems, thanks a lot for your excellent Job!
Hello, Thanks so much for all the instructive videos you've done already and the content you shared with us :) You have already helped me so much understanding the theory behind subjects which seems difficult at first sight. But your explanations are always so clear, straight forward and tbh, this is the best way to understand. This video is the perfect example! Would it be possible do one video related to the electrical circuit within an aircraft and its relating components? (DC/AC gen, CSD/IDG, shunt generator etc.) That would be really helpful and interesting! Thanks a lot in advance, and wish you the best, Cheers, Elise
Very clear. Is there a part 2? Do you cover "electronic' magnetos? That is, those without mechanical points. Or, are they not yet used on aircraft engines? Thanks.
.... A circuit diagram of the coil windings and exact connection of the points is required .I'm contending that the collapse of the field is for the primary windings and the secondary windings step up the voltage generated in the primary but without a layout we can't delve further .
Hello can alternator act as magneto? And how wuld I prevent shock tought chassis ground? Is there any posibility to use capacitor banks instead lead acid baterry if so how to protect lead acid baterry to be effected be ac ? Im looking for old magneto ignition system . But I dont understand how they manage not to get shocked. Can alternator winding be placed in series ore pararel configuration with ignition coil ? If so wuld still ignition module work inside destributor with ac electricity? I mean wuld the ignition coil still operate more ore less normaly ?
I fist heard of these in a James Bond novel (original) I first read in the 1980s. Bond was following someone with a tracking device in his car. The girl with him asked what that noise was. He said "magneto whine". 😂
Wait, Wait, Wait. How do you ground something on an airplane? I mean it's flying in the air or sitting on rubber tires so how do you send electrons into the ground? 🧐
i aint no engineer, but my bar-b-que lighter can make a spark with a AA battery. Why does it take 20,000 volts to make a spark in a plug with such a tiny gap? i don't understand...
It's to ignite the fuel reliably the weaker the spark the more a chance your engine will knock (uneven or late ignition of mixture) or just not ignite the mixture. Ever notice how you have to occasionally click your lighter several times before it lights ?
By far the best, simplest, easy to understand explanation and illustration on magnetos I've seen. Great Job! Thank you!
True
I 100% agree.
So clear, so precise, no music and no "used car salesman" energy - thank you! Thank you! Thank you!
wow. i love you. now i know what my teacher is been trying to explain for 10 hours. thank you
Glad it helped.
This video alone is worth 10+ atpl exam questions, incredible work!
In three minutes I now understand how magnetos work. Thank you!!!

I'm not even a pilot, but you, sir, have earned a new sub.
Este es el tipo de videos que me gustan, cortos, claros, concisos e ilustrativos. Excelente video!
WOW!!! THANK YOU! You can’t imagine how many videos I had watched about this subject, and you explained everything in just 3 minutes.... Thank you! Excellent job ⚡️
Ad aspiring pilot I find this incredibly helpful and now I know why we check magneto before take off
this video helped me pass my project for my A&P license
awesome
Sos un crack!! El único que supo explicarlo correctamente
At last! One simple, good explanation of how a mag works. Beautiful. Thanks!
The best explanation on TH-cam. Thanks.
Extremely well explained. Thank you. I honestly have not heard or seen it explained better anywhere else.
thank you
Amazing!!! Clear and concise explanation !!! Thank you
Im brazilian and I just want to say Thanks for the vídeo, the best exolanation ever.
Excellent. Thank you.
I've built a VR helicopter, and I have a magneto switch, but I didn't know what it did :)
Well done. The illustrations are by far-THE BEST I have seen. A&P Training videos on magneto's are hard to come by that illustrate the action inside.
thank you
This is a perfect guide to magnetos. Now I want to check out your other vids. I need vids like this in my life. Thank you!
Thanks man, best magneto break down I've ever seen!
Thanks
Fantastic, easy, and clear, the graphics are excellent, please make more videos about Jet aircraft hydraulic, electrical, and pneumatic systems, thanks a lot for your excellent Job!
great video! will definitely be using this for my students!
awesome.
*THAT WAS A PERFECT EXPLANATION AND VERY EASY TO UNDERSTAND, THANKS FOR BEING SO HELPFUL!! ;-)*
This videos are great, straight to the point with easy to understand concepts
Best explanation man! Helped a lot, cheers!
the simplicity of the concept made me to subscribe immedieltly !!! thank u
Outstanding video, thank you.
Thank you for this brother, great explanation. May GOD bless you

Fantastic presentation, especially the animation. Excellent job!
Thank you!
Fantastic graphics and description..thank you
That was extremely informative and helpful. Thanks for the upload.
Great info & simply explained!!
Thank you
Great simple description man! Thank you this applies nicely to cars and motorbikes too
excellent presentation
Very clear. Is there a part 2? Do you cover "electronic' magnetos? That is, those without mechanical points. Or, are they not yet used on aircraft engines? Thanks.
Dude this is insanely good
Very helpful video. Thanks man! Appreciate it.
Best explanation ever!
Best explanation! Thank you very much! :D
I gotta test tomorrow in my powerplant class over magnetos. This sure did help a lot lol
This was incredibly well made and informative, just like all your others! Glad to see another video!
thank you!
flawless video and explanation. thank you so much.
Great voice and explanation!
Thank u brother u explained it perfectly
Thank you!You make me know how the Magneto work finally...
great explanation, thanks
What an incredible video, definitely subscribed.
.... A circuit diagram of the coil windings and exact connection of the points is required .I'm contending that the collapse of the field is for the primary windings and the secondary windings step up the voltage generated in the primary but without a layout we can't delve further .
that's way over my head, gooood luck
Very well explained.
Bro… that was clean thank you!
Thank you so much for this amazing video and explanation! well done!
Thank you
Thank you sir for posting
Your welcome!
What a nice explanation, thanks!
Spot on information, thanks!
Simplest explaination 👍
I now understand it. Thanks
Sir, make more videos on engine ignition system. Your video clear all the doubt in the simplest way.
Good video. You didn't mention the capacitor, however.
This video has helped a lot but what's the white wire going to ?
Harley Davidson used magnetos on the 900cc Sportster until 1969! No battery, kickstart only, a wonderful machine.
neat!
Amazing! You look very much like someone I know.
Excellent!
Hello can alternator act as magneto?
And how wuld I prevent shock tought chassis ground?
Is there any posibility to use capacitor banks instead lead acid baterry if so how to protect lead acid baterry to be effected be ac ?
Im looking for old magneto ignition system .
But I dont understand how they manage not to get shocked.
Can alternator winding be placed in series ore pararel configuration with ignition coil ?
If so wuld still ignition module work inside destributor with ac electricity?
I mean wuld the ignition coil still operate more ore less normaly ?
idk
Good job
This is a great video! Thank you so much
Awesome
Thank you.
So in very simple terms it's a generator combined with a step up transformer. Genius
Thank you so much to me it's a clear tutorial.
Thanks!
Great video. Make more!
Dude!! This was awesome!!thank you so much🥂🤘🏽👏
So if asked what a magneto is, would it be correct to simply say the magneto provides power to the spark plugs?
on points it trigger the ground wire but on cdi it's common to see the positive to be trigger, is the ground better or theres no difference.
Extremely well done!
Thanks
U R Awesome!
You too!
very cool animation
How does the engine start if the magneto requires it to be turning in order to work?
I fist heard of these in a James Bond novel (original) I first read in the 1980s. Bond was following someone with a tracking device in his car. The girl with him asked what that noise was. He said "magneto whine". 😂
Great explanation....Oscar retired electricain @68
Thanks Oscar
Amazing video keep it up mate
The Magneto energize the Coil. and the contact point is what induce that high voltage spike
Very helpful, thanks a lot :)
you are the best
Damnnn good man ! That was really easy to understand .keep up the good work .
Thank you
underrated video
Wait, Wait, Wait. How do you ground something on an airplane? I mean it's flying in the air or sitting on rubber tires so how do you send electrons into the ground? 🧐
Now that makes much better sense to how aircraft can be struck by lightning and still keep Engines running.
Thank you!!!!
Thanx its been so long since id seen one on a car that i forgot
basically, the ignition magneto is an induction coil that furnishes its own current.
Venn diagram overlap of whenever I am either fixing my lawn mower engine or thinking about aircraft systems in detail.
very nice animation
ty
THANK YOU !!!
20k volts "AC" right because its from coils?
Anyone else studying for their a&p?!
your vid is world class
i aint no engineer, but my bar-b-que lighter can make a spark with a AA battery. Why does it take 20,000 volts to make a spark in a plug with such a tiny gap? i don't understand...
It's to ignite the fuel reliably the weaker the spark the more a chance your engine will knock (uneven or late ignition of mixture) or just not ignite the mixture. Ever notice how you have to occasionally click your lighter several times before it lights ?
Thanks, bro
