5mm Navigation light instructions. V1.1

Thank you for your purchases of my High intensity LED Navigation lights. These Special LED’s can produce a brilliance of a 50w standard light bulb (white landing light).

  This system is designed to operate with a 4.8Vdc flight battery pack. The lights use 150 mah of current so a 600 mah battery pack will keep these lights on for aprox 3 hrs.

The LED’s will last aprox 10,000 hrs of operation, and will not be affected by temp or moisture.

  They can be added to existing aircraft or incorporated in your build.  If your installing on a foam park flyer the small wire can be easily hidden in the foam wing or taped to the bottom of the wing.

  If wish to operate lights on a higher voltage you will need to insert a voltage dropping resistor in series with the supply battery pack. These resistors can be found at Radio shack or on the Internet. Another version would to use a UBEC. These UEC will provide a regulated 5Vdc to operate all of the LED packages we offer. This UBEC can be purchased from us for $15.00

Values for resistors are as follows:

6v – 7.4v, 22 ohm 3 w resistor

10 – 12v, 68 ohm 3w resistor

 

Color-coding for the lights and wire harness are:

Red LED – 1 red color dot on light

Green LED – 1 green mark on light

Red flashing – 2 red marks on light

White flashing – 2 white marks on light

Landing light – 1 white mark

Yellow or green wire is + 4.8 Vdc

Black is – 4.8Vdc

  You may need to purchase additional disconnect connectors for your application. Most applications will require one connector for the wing lights and one for the main power supply.

  Caution: If using on an electric motor application check you ESC, BEC for current values. Most BEC state 3A current draw but I have noticed that some are 1.5A and 2A. Depending on the size of servos, receiver you may exceed the current capacity of your BEC by installing the additional 150Mah current draw needed for the landing and Nav lights. If you don’t know the current capacity of you BEC and system, you may want to use a separate battery for the navigation and landing lights.

8mm Navigation light instructions.

Thank you for your purchases of my High intensity LED Navigation lights. These Special LED’s can produce a brilliance of a 50w standard light bulb (white landing light).

This system is designed to operate with a 4.8Vdc flight battery pack. The lights use 250 mah of current so a 600 mah battery pack will keep these lights on for aprox 3.0 hrs.

The LED’s will last aprox 10,000 hrs of operation, and will not be affected by temp or moisture.

They can be added to existing aircraft or incorporated in your build.  If your installing on a foam park flyer the small wire can be easily hidden in the foam wing or taped to the bottom of the wing.

If wish to operate lights on a voltage more than 4.8Vdc, could still use your receiver voltage or you will need to use a separate BEC to regulate the output voltage at 4.8Vdc. These BEC’s can be found easily on the internet and prices vary from $7 - $15.00.

Color-coding for the lights and wire harness are:

Red LED – 1 red color dot on light

Green LED – 1 green mark on light

Red flashing – 2 red marks on light

White flashing – 2 white marks on light

Landing light – 1 white mark

Yellow or green  wire is + 4.8 Vdc

Black is – 4.8Vdc

You may need to purchase additional disconnect connectors for your application. Most applications will require one connector for the wing lights and one for the main power supply.
