some of my friends had put some led's on there slow sticks and belive me ...it was awsome watching them fly 'em in the night. So.. went a step further & lit up my entire slow-stick !
Cool Man!!!!!!!!!!! What type of LEDs have you used?
those r self-sticking 12V led lights we get here at our local electrical market. they r verry brright & dnt effect flight duration in any way !!
I cant tell u how much fun it its to fly in the night.
i've been planning to come to goa along with my planes as some old friends wanna taste rc flying, we can meet then.
Sure!!!! I am building a stick plane . I will light it up and we wil go to fly. Who are your old Friends. Let me know
They r Karl & Christopher, both bros. r into gocarting business. one running it in Calangut (spare me for spelling mistakes)called 'GoaGocarting' & the other somewhere in south goa which is located on a hill.
Karl has a lovely 23cc rc 2wd hummer called "ShengQui".
Here's my glow stick :D

i just want to ask one thing...
How do propellers light up during night flying ?
are they special kind of night flying propellers like helis have special night flying rotor blades or its something else
Hey akky, those r regular GWS slowflyers (green). Leds stuck on the wing facing forward(the prop) r illuminating it.
are they powered by a different lipo or the same lipo used for plane.
They are powered by the same battery used for the plane
Same lipo is used to power the led's..
Cool lights {:)} {:)}
Neatly done gentlemen! {:)}
