Build Log – LED Strips Soldered and Attached to Booms

LED Strips for the BoomsThese LED strips should make the copter more visible from the ground.  I soldered the leads, then put some heat shrink on there to keep things neat.

I’m not entirely sure how I’ll connect these up, but since they’re 12 volt, I will probably just integrate a pair of wires on a JST connector into the soon-to-be-built power harness.  Now that I think about it, I’ll need another pair for the video Tx.  I suppose that means I’ll have to update the diagram.

That’s it for today…
