Post your Night Rig Pics and Videos

[Stallion]

This my First Night Heli!!! Flew it to night but still having some wobbling problems. Will check blades for proper balancing. I use Torsion 550 Night Blades with a V-Bar 4.0 and KBDD Night Blades on the Tail. LED strips on the landing gear and cold light strings for canopy and boom all running from a 2s 800mah lipo.
will send more pic's.

Hey folks, I started working on my night 450 night rig today, and just got the canopy finished. I put some LEDs on the inside, cause looking at the other night flight rigs, there's a dead spot when you got the tail pointing right where you can't see much. You can see it bright as day from the back now, and give the canopy a nice green glow.

Here's where I'm at:

Need to do the canopy next.

[sp00fman]

Extreme LED blades... 4X 1W led.

Sorry, just a few flips, nothing fancy as i was a bit rusty on the sticks.
Don't wanna crash my new toy.

Here's my 450 night setup that I finished last weekend. It has 2 light strings along with a light set that I bought a few years ago to use on my first heli but never used.

Here it is my new reborn Trex600N Night flying machine!!
As my flying progresses with my FBL birds i started flying my FB T600N again and converted it to a ball of light that can fly too!! :-D

[ChrisH]

Stallion, which ~95mm tails are you using?

[Stallion]

@ChrisH

I use Torsion Night Blades main and tail blades. The Mains are a little bit soft but they light up pretty good. Tail authority is good though.
