looks beautifull, i have been thinking of trying night flying to extend the sessions during our dark british winters. i have a quick question for you if i may, do you use while leds and coloured film or clear film and coloured led's ? your help would be much appreciated.

@richardjweeks The led's are colored, they are then stuck on top of the colored monokote.

I have one strip of those LED lights and can run them off a garage door battery. One strip has about 65 lights I believe. So my question to you is what battery did you run all those lights off of?

[wcolbyHD]

@jcrankshawskids

The LED are powered by three separate 3 cell 2100 Mah li-po batteries. I have 5 meters of red & 5 meters of green in the wing run by a single 2100 Mah 3 cell lithium polymer battery.

I have 5 meters of blue on the tail & 5 meters of white on the sides of the fuselage run by another 2100 Mah 3 cell lithium polymer battery pack.

And finally there is 10 meters of white LED on the bottom of the fuselage run by a third 2100 Mah 3 cell lithium polymer battery.

I just checked these night fliers videos and they are beautiful. A great idea to do it on this oldie... And in the sunset light something magical is happening in there ! BRAVO !

Plane and a wonderful and beautiful idea

[vexviper]

That's realy neat.. It would be even neater if you could make them pulsate.

[robotalex12]

where do you buy those lights?

[lvsupertech]

Awesome!!!

[ratheads]

AAAHH, there's something so nice about old timers.

[candytrains]

would love to buy one would you make one to sell Robert

[wcolbyHD]

Yes, material cost is about $1500 then labor for the 3 week build would be another $1500 then there is the delivery cost...
