Hi,

I'm a newbie in RC heli and I would like to know if it's possible to do night flights in very dark conditions like on moonless nights. Can I install different color night lights (as to know the position of the heli) anywhere on the aircraft ? Or install something else to make flight possible ?

Any comments or suggestions will be really appreciated.

Thanks

my friend thanh
makes very very nice LED kits for helicopters
it runs off the battery of the helicopter
and the LEDS tell you the amount of power left on the batter

What you need is "light rope" and "night blades".
