What gauge wire would you run from the battery in the front of the plane to
the starter in the back? I was thinking of  2 gauge wire any thoughts ?
----------
2 gauge is good; although it can depend on what engine you're cranking.
I've found that my 3-rotor rotary spins easily on about 40 amps, so I could
have gone smaller.  Don't forget you need a comparable return path.

Best,

Al
