Flying a Twisted Hobby’s Edge 540 with LED lights

Posted by on April 18, 2012

Flew a Twisted Hobby’s Edge 540 with their LED light kit in the dark on Monday night, and I noticed two things. The lights are so bright, that because of the starburst effect due to my LASIKed eyes, from a distance, all I can see are the bright starbursts of the LED lights. The other thing is that when I bring the plane in close for a hover, because it’s dark all around, there’s nothing distracting my peripheral or background vision when I’m looking at the plane. The plane becomes a spotlighted dancer on a stage.
