Mine finally arrived today ... three weeks to the day from them being posted. Now gotta work out how to turn them on lol!!!

Loquacious, see the tiny black button in one corner? Press and hold for three secs. The strobes will then start. Obviously you'll need to charge it up first. Supposedly goes for 5hrs +.
I learned this from the website...it gives you other info there on what different flashes mean.

Here is a pretty crappy video showing the Flytron standalone strobes on my typhoon. Sorry for all the camera shake and blurriness...no tripod was used. When I get my Typhoon back from Yuneec someday I will shoot a much better video of the strobes.

Mine arrived today .... Yay!

All checked and tested .... now to figure out where I want to place them on the bird. Will probably go traditional .... Red/Left, Green/Right, White/Rear.

Cheers

Let me know how your visibility is for the different colors... I went for the green as I read quite a few reviews of which colour lights were the best for daytime use. Green seemed to be the most popular according to Uni researchers.

Thanks Chris

How's the new strobes going?

Haven't had a chance to try them out yet ..... weather here is terrible for flying at the moment and does not look like improving any time this week-end which sucks because I now have 3 batteries !!!
