Hi there
Wondering if anyone has experimented with this idea.
I very quickly get disoriented when the bird gets a certain distance away. The green and red lights are not visible at a distance in the day time rendering them useless. The led strobe sometimes is visible but that is very hit or miss.
So I was thinking about trying to create a hack. I would like to install a narrow beam strobe or laser, maybe red pointing forward, and green backwards. This would allow to easily tell front from back at a distance while grabbing footage.
Real airplanes have strobes. 2 simple strobes would allow me to not get disoriented. Seems like a chip shot solution.
Has anyone tried something like this?
This is for daytime usually over the water.
Thanks in advance.
John
