@ianzone, that really looks sharp. But, I gotta say, you’ve got WAY too much free time on your hands.
I barely find enough time to charge up my batteries to go fly. Guess I have to make the time I suppose.......
Looks good. Maybe you can work up a short video of this bird in flight to share with us? (Doesn’t have to be at night.) I’d like to see how the lights look in flight. Just be safe, ok? [emoji106]

Good old LED torchs,when this sad weather goes I might get a flight in,spinning props by hand now,waiting
No, not sure why you would want to do this except for maybe a very specific use. Unless maybe you enjoy attention. Better these days to just lay low rather than let the entire neighborhood and everyone else for that matter you are flying again.
Don't be so boring,have some fun,,it's called experimenting,,

I bought a set of LED Headlight/Tailights from Amazon. They are made by Polar Pro. There are 4 strips with 4 LED lights per strip and there are two red strips and two white strips. They attach to the legs of the Phantom. They are very bright towards night time and very easy to see at great distances. Not a bad deal for $30.

Boring? Maybe people like drones where you live. Ive had to go so far as to tape all the lights over on mine.
Yip that bad to cover up ,sorry you got a do that,people here not like drones either and I have had to deal with a few of them,I'm actually finding that being all lite up I have had no issues,mate I hate attention when flying it's sposed to be a Hobbie and fun unless it's for work related stuff,last thing I want is trouble ,,I even had cops here but not doing nothing wrong,I ended up educating them on it,bit of a laugh..luck on my side where I live there's 2 more phantoms in a 400ft radius that buzz the sky aswell,

Its very un clear inazone how the torches are attached to the motor pods...how about in your spare time taking a picture of one pod so we can see just how its attached....Hope the weather has cleared and you have No Blisters on the fingers from....spinning the props and can goooooooooooo fly ! Cheers ))))))))
Yes sorry forgot that part,p4 headlight sets comes with proper inserts that just clip into original lugs that clip in..ps I know torch says police,that was on there (from ebay)but have plans to remove so not get in trouble,,p4p lumens cube mounts and cable tie hold side lights.no balance issues,flys nice
....and yes my landing gear cracked,have new one here,just not ready to pull apart yet.that happen when I glue light there with a adOS glue it melted plastic

Hey, ianzone, you ever get mistaken for a 737 on final approach with all those spotlights?
"Spinning props". Is that what the kids are calling it these days?
