Title: RC operated switch for lights on airplane. Post by: gauravag on July 01, 2009, 11:20:33 AM Hello everyone,
I was building a scale Cessna 182 .90 size, and was working on putting the landing lights. Now i would like to have these lights work through a transmitter channel. Does anyone know how to build a "switch" that could be mapped to a RX channel, and be used ? I am sure there would be schematics available, would appreciate if you could point me to one such site, OR if there is a ready made product, just link me to it. Thanks !

Depending on the capabilities of your radio, you may be able to assign the lights to whatever switch you want (with a bit of programming on the radio).

U can control any electronics device with ur RC channel. Its made on a controller so u can actually program strobe lights and flasher into it very simply.
