NEW Strobon V2 Strobe Lights HERE

These Strobon strobe lights from Flytron are very bright, so much so we wouldn't recommend looking directly at them close-up, they are blinding! In the dark they can be seen from over one mile away! Even in the daylight they are more than bright enough to help you with your multirotor's orientation. Click here for a YouTube video. The Strobon unit drives the white power LED with 1000mA for 40ms (2 x 20ms pulses) on every second. This generates extremely bright flashes with very low power consumption - only 50mAh! If you use more than one Strobon on the same servo channel they will synchronise, meaning all strobes will flash at the same time like a real aircraft strobe system.

The device features 2 different working modes, continuous or RC mode.

  • Power it directly from a battery (4-6v) and it strobes continuously.
  • Plug it into a receiver channel and then you can activate it remotely.

The new Strobon V2s are smaller and boast 5 different channel patterns.

Unfortunately the manufacturer of Strobon are currently moving premises so their production has stopped. It will probably be another 2-4 weeks.

How to light your multirotor: Lighting is obviously a necessity for nighttime flying, however it's also really helpful when flying in daylight. Unlike helicopters, multicopters typically lack defining features to help with orientation; lighting is therefore a great solution. It makes most sense to employ a navigational lighting setup - Red on the Port (left) side, Green on the Starboard (right) side and a white strobe astern. When it comes to selecting your lights there are lots of options: LEDs, HPLEDs (High power LEDs), Strip lights and Strobes. Regular LEDs are inexpensive and come in an array of colours. While they consume little power, LEDs are best suited to nighttime applications as they are usually too dim to be seen in bright daylight. Alternatively the next generation of LEDS, HPLEDs are much brighter. They can be driven by much greater currents meaning that some can emit over 1000 lumens. At night they can be seen for miles but more importantly they are visible in bright daylight. Since overheating is destructive, HPLEDs must be mounted on a heat sink to allow for heat dissipation. Both regular and HP LEDs are easy to wire up - however note that LEDs will only light up with correct electrical polarity and that they have a maximum current rating which must not be exceeded. To limit the amount of current through an LED a suitable resistor should be used. Strips lights are fun when it comes to night flights and are fantastic for orientation purposes. Some can be powered/controlled with an LED RGB Driver to cycle between different modes and colours. LEDs of all types can be turned into a strobe by using asuitable controller, strobes have the added bonus of low power consumption. The key to all lighting installations is to think about voltage and current requirements, a voltage regulator/UBEC will usually be necessary to help meet this requirements. Finally it is advisable to power lights from a separate battery to your flight battery.
