how much amps for lights?

[bensontam]

so you need 2 batteries for the plane (1 for led light kit and another one for the motor)?

[rcboatdriver1234]

you could also use a 4 aa holder with a jst connector

[r0ksolid]

the red and the grees is port ans starbit

but very cool!!

[Kpilot786457]

kni have some?

[sundown798]

Check out their website now. I saw them on there under seasonal.

[VMFA115Starloric]

You might want to coat the underside of the wings with opaque tape to make it more friendly to the eyes and hide the wires

[joehandsome99]

Thanks for the tips. I like the bright lights. Makes it easier to see in the dark.

[VMFA115Starloric]

No problem :D

[bigednycles]

hey joe the lights your looking for are at radio shack for real cheap an its like 5 in a pack

[joehandsome99]

Yes, but I can get the lights cheaper at Michaels craft store and have more lights.

[ik1371995]

cool

how much is the weight(with battery)?

[joehandsome99]

It adds a couple ounces.

[tulvatalo]

where is the rc part of the video

[joehandsome99]

Did you check the video responses to this video? All my related videos are there tulvatalo.

[bbrmotosports]

yea works great, but not so energy efficient tho,

[joehandsome99]

They work great and are cheap to put together. Thanks for watching bbrmotorsports.

[007richBoy]

where do u get these? looks nice. can u put it on model cars?

[joehandsome99]

I got these lights from a craft store called Micheals really cheap. Yes, you can put them on your car richboy.

[kevin1032v]

cool lots of lights looks awesome

[joehandsome99]

When I can get around tuit, I am making another light kit with more lights on it for this plane. Thanks for watching kevin1032v.

[cameraman1234567890]

can't you just hook up the power to the main firebird battery?

[joehandsome99]

Yes, that is an option, but I decided to add another lipo battery for the lights. It gives me more flying time at night. Thanks for watching cameraman.

[jgizz31]

very nice the next how to video you should make is how to get a plan out of a 60 foot tree . i almost had it the i looked awat no its permentily air born :)

[joehandsome99]

lol... Try using an arrow and string. I hear that works jgizz31.

[retiredrider]

Great setup. I am using a two cell set up as well. ,No problems so far and man they are bright.

[joehandsome99]

Your setup is bright and looks pretty cool too Greg. Thanks for the comment.

[SkyRanger93]

Great job! Very cool. Something to think about though, it looks like those lights were meant for 2 AA batteries. That's 6 volts and you're running a 2cell Li-Po at 8.4 volts full charge. That's 2 volt more! They'll be a lot brighter but last a lot shorter that way. Maybe put a resistor in there to knock the volts down? Wouldn't want your plane going dark! By the way, what paint did you use?

[SkyRanger93]

oops i mean 3 volts not 6 lol

[joehandsome99]

There are two strands of lights connected together each requiring 3 volts so in parallel that would be 6 volts. The lipo I used was a 7.4 lipo so it did have just a little more juice than I needed, but proved to be fun at night. The next light kit will be bigger so I wont have to worry about too many volts then. Thanks for the comment Skyranger93.

[NightFlyyer]

Well Eric, I think I can smell burning foam wing clear over here in Iowa. That is wild. Do you run an extension cord to it while it is flying? Ha ha. Great job, but from experience there is a looooot of Drag on the bottom of that wing for sure. 5 Stars.

[joehandsome99]

Well it works fine and I looped the plane and did everything else you could do with it during the initial day time flying check before I flew it at night. Thanks for the comment Dave.

[torontoteddy62]

Great video on the ligths on your plane and it looks so great on the plane with the lights of your friend Robert.

[joehandsome99]

Thanks for watching and the kind words Robert.

[helicopterkid1996]

Now i have use for my blade cx2 battery. When upgrading a part i lost a part that was not available to buy. Nice 5 stars

[joehandsome99]

I try to keep my spare RC parts as down the road they come in handy for something. Thanks for the comment HCK.

[RCSuperPowers]

Great set up!

[joehandsome99]

Hey thanks Dave. It is appreciated.

[horizonflyer9]

dude you could see that plane at night from miles away! great job!

[joehandsome99]

Thanks for watching and the comment horizonflyer9.

[duckpk10]

[joehandsome99]

Thanks for the rating and comment duckpk10.

[startazz]

Nice one Eric that has geven me some good ideas mate,and i really apreciate the video and the time you took out to do it,all the best and five stars.

[joehandsome99]

I was hoping I could find the exact same lights again because they worked out very well for RC plane lights. Thanks for watching and the comment Startazz.
