What are y'all doing for the rotary start-up and pre-takeoff check list items.

I am in the process of making an inclusive check list for my plane. I know I can find check list items for lots of models, including the Velocity. on line etc (I tend to forget the transponder...doh) but I wish to make sure to CYA to completion of the things rotary specific, such as switching to the "B" computer, disabling the coils separately via the switch that works only with the B computer as well as disabling the coils and injectors individually on both A & B similar to a mag check in the Lyc. I have placed a "stop" on the switch on to die....uh, I mean cold start switch as to prevent its use in the air. What things do y'all do specifically due to the rotary? What order and why.

I remember discussion on shut down too, but have yet to search for that. Seems there was a lot of views on to shut the engine down by shutting off the fuel pump v shutting off the coils v shutting off the injectors. No one mentioned killing the master ;-).

Also, what kind of RPM drops do y'all find in these steps. My RPM drops less when I disable the secondary's, which can make sense with staging...or so I think.

What say ye? Discuss......

Thanks,
