Not horrible price. well as i read other places seems these are no longer made

Also for those who have done night flying. I am trying to get some help/suggestions on how to go about putting the LED's I have to order some so wanna be sure i get everything i need ...

Thinking about putting 4 strips down the tail boom bottom,both sides, top.
then putting on both sides of the tail fin. these be all the same color most likely Orange since that is the color my boom and fin always are my fav color for seeing.

then put on the landing gear I have trex 500 gear on my 450 so nice and big should be room for lights on the part that runs down to the rails.
not sure color yet maybe Blue..

then canopy all in green. not sure how i should do it. maybe 4 sets. bottom, and up near center on both sides these be in green..

I have flown planes at night never helicopter. this be my first one.

You can make your own with Perfect Regulators kits
Magic Night Blades make them you can program them with words and pictures but they are pricey.
Don't know of any tail blades

I've been looking at those (325). Says they will be available in 4 to 6 weeks but I have been seeing that since Now - Dec. Lots of good info/advice at the top of this forum.

I was wondering this myself. Their page has had that note for months. I tried sending a contact us and didn't get a reply.

I'm hoping they're still around, otherwise I'm SOL on my night project

Looks like they may not be doing business anymore.

Info on the website is dated 2015. The HF account last posted in 2014, selling a bunch of helis. Last facebook post in January, They were posting monthly in 2015.

Potentially really bad news for guys like me. I'm not good enough at soldering to even THINK about soldering those tiny SMDs to my blades.

Got a hold of someone at perfect regulators. They ordered batteries back in November, but they haven't been shipped for some reason

See if they'll sell you the strips for the blades without the lipos. I just picked up a pair of 260mah 1s flat lipos for night blades from Hobbyking, US East warehouse for $3.
