Off with the glow sticks!

[Jherison]

Here is my rig so far...

Got the canopy done.




Using the driver as ballast COG spot on! Adjustable with Velcro.


If you thought putting on the stock canopy was impossible, check this out. It still fits with a little push!


Tail is done, only did left side of fin since blades will glow green (once installed).


It's really hard to get the winding perfect, rod holders and stabilizer did not want to cooperate!

UV led for tail blades done, runs off main pack balance lead.



To do list..

1. Mount glow tail blades.
2. Make mount for dual MCX2 batteries for cold lights. Or buy / mount small single 7.2v pack.
3. Retrofit external batteries on my Align night blades.

Sorry for no in the air pictures, rain / wind all weekend.

Excellent work on that canopy. Get ready for a few PMs from folks wanting canopy work done. Dont forget some pics/vid when we get a lull in monsoon season.
