I know that you can use the magnetos in IL-2 they are in the controls and at this point are really only good for accidently shutting off your engine, if you have the keys set for them but you really don't need them. It wouldn't be a bad thing to have them in a full real setting with complete systems management, and have to actually use it. I like the idea of having to keep a plane running correctly and not just press a key and fly without worry. The Black Shark Model is a great example even simplified it demonstrates what flying a real aircraft entails. I watched a video on I think the A2A P-47 and it was kinda cool to see the switches thrown the primer pumped and the prop slowly turn and then roar to life, mixture and prop pitch set and then taxi. This is what I would expect to see.
