Cox Pee Wee r / c flight late afternoon.

Hello, yes it is true, strips of LEDs are placed, even come accessory modeling lights for this purpose, but my case was different, it turns out that there was a family party where someone from my family appeared with these cotillion accessories, and then to see them I said ... why not? and I decided to place them to see what can happen.
I like them because they are light and individual and I am trying to find the best position to take advantage of the light they emit ... in short, I like how they look, load more things to the model, it must be a controlled theme, since extra weight means more risk ... but until now stop working.
As soon as I have time I'll make a video ... maybe it can be better appreciated that way.
The Cox Pee Wee .020 a wonder!

Cool Looking !! I have not seen these lights with the battery in each one / i don't go shopping that much ? i have thought about doing this with a C/L and try and fly at dusk. I am sure it looks good fling !!

A neat application Maurico, but to be navigationally correct the red LED should be on the right wing looking at you.  The old "Red Right Returning" applies. Rules to both aviation and nautical venues and universally accepted world wide.  



Una buena aplicación, Maurico, pero para ser navegacionalmente correcta, el LED rojo debería estar en el ala derecha mirándote. Se aplica el viejo "Red Right Returning". Reglas para aviación y lugares náuticos y universalmente aceptados en todo el mundo

Hello friend Erick !, Merry Christmas for you! .....
Yes, they are interesting because they do not require a large installation, only a double-sided tape is enough! Listen, if you put lights on that high-speed model that you have, you're going to look like this:

Ohh, thanks Bob, it was a casual act the placement of colors, then, now that you tell me I can change their position.
I'm finding out where they bought these cotillion leds, because I'd like to place a couple more even on other models too ....
There are no records that I know of a Cox Pee Wee r/c flying at night !! ... I'll try!
A hug for your friend !. Thank you

This enthusiasm me! ... so it's 2.22am in the patio of my house and I made an installation to start a flight in 2018! ..
Cox Pee Wee RC night flight .... who would imagine it?
If Leroy Cox lived and his TEAM read to me, I would like to say: Thank you for expressing your genius, this genius has created debates, friends and even pleasures in life! Thanks Leroy!

Wonderful!

Now with the red light on the other wing you can tell that the model is flying toward you. Red Right Returning is easy to remember.

At 2:22 am here north of the equator in West Virginia it's about zero degrees F. No shorts wearing up here.
