It is well known that the Rotax cannot be handpropped, right? This was what I believed...until I watched this video (2:00 - 3:00):

That looks and feels so wrong on a Rotax. And no chocks......

Remi,

Thank you for the link.  Didn't seem too hard to start at all. Until
this video, the only other time I have heard of was when someone landed
on a beach and experienced a flat battery.   Needless to say, the
incoming tide provided the necessary impetus to crank the engine
successfully by hand!

Regards
Kingsley

It CAN be done if you're desperate!! Probably only possible with a pre warmed engine.
