Which Strobe Light Works Best With the H520?

[seowashdc]

Hi all,

In your opinion, which strobe light works best for the H520 to comply with a daylight waiver? (I'm talking about the United States).

And, where are your preferred mounting locations on the drone that least impact flight performance? Camera performance?

TIA,

I have one Red & White mounted to the legs, mine are powered by a 9 volt battery.
Another good option are the Firehouse Strobe & a mounting made for the H.

I like this option a lot. It's a neat, clean on/off system.

Be sure to watch the video at the bottom of their page. Had I done that I wouldn't have broken one of the holders trying to open it.

The light from TI look nice. I question the claimed 4 gram weight however. The Firehouse lights, which are just the battery and PC board weigh 7 grams. Hard to imagine how the other lights weigh less than that with a housing on them. What do yours weigh Steve?

BTW, the Firehouse lights are very bright, even in full sunlight!!

On my scale the strobe together with the holder weighs .3 oz or 8.5 Grams. When I switch the reading to gm it reads 454. Not sure what to make of that.

454gr is roughly a US lb. They look heavier than Firehouse but nothing near that heavy LOL!

Maybe the grm button is having a brain cramp on your scales

The strobes and holder are very light. It would take a box full of them to weight a lb.
