    I have a rexy 700 and want to make it into a night flyer. Totally new to this and no real support from where i am. I can solder but i was wondering for this size heli, how many leds, how much would it cost and is there any good references i can use? Just confused thats all

      Hobby king... just buy the colors you want... get at least several meters of each color.. you use more than you think... I think I use close to 8 meters on the goblin 630...

      Use a 2s lipo dedicated to the lights not you rx pack as if it shorts there goes your heli...

      Keep it simple the more complex the more soldering
