Hi...really compliments a great video.....one question: on the board I did not understand how the led should be put. should the positive be placed on the right or on the left or is it indifferent? many thanks...
Is there any way to make the strobes and position lights blink slower? It looks a bit fast in your video. Sorry, I don't have much experience with building electric circuits :D
Hi, yes is possible but it is necessary to reduce the frequency generated by the NE555, I should design a second version of this circuit giving the possibility to adjust the flashing speed
@@Stefano91ste That would be awesome! Besides the blinking issue, that board really helps beginners like me building models with lighting! Thank you very much!
I have ordered the PCb but u inserted 100v 1uf , but u mentioned in the board 1uf 25v also unable to find the 1uf 25v capacitor in the Online Market Please let me know ASAP
Hi, You need to use a 1uF electrolytic capacitor (25, 50 or 100V is always good) - I wrote 25V to make sure that you don't use a capacitor with tolerance less than 25V
HI Hope u are doing good.. Can u plz help me with my query 1) can we power the circuit directly from the reciver that is around 5volt 2)and if not what changes should we make in the circuit or in the resistors value 3) your reply would help me a lot... Thanks
Hi, thank you! 1) Yes, but the light intensity may be lower. 2) If the brightness is low, to make it work at 5V replace the two 330 ohm resistors with 220 ohm. Replace the 470 ohm resistor with a 330 ohm resistor 3) ;)
Hello, i have watched several times video this is the easiest thing for rc plane to do and best explained (components that need where to order pcb ...) i am not an expert in electronics making pcb board is a problem for me so i have a couple of questions: 1.can two leds be put on one output or does a stronger resistor have to be fitted? 2. Can a Cree led diode be used instead of the PWR led diode to serve as a taxi light 3. What does this frequency controller look like (What mark) and where can it be added to slow down the strobe light a little? All the best, stay safe.
Hello, I try to answer you :) 1) Yes, you can put 2 leds on the outputs, but not more. 2) Yes, as long as the cree led does not need more than 2.5V to switch on 3) The frequency is generated by the NE555, to change it you need to vary the resistance from 33K with a greater or lesser. (Better put a 50K potentiometer)
You said, "This PCB has been realised in the most compact way possible". In fact, it has many square centimetres of unused space - far from optimum. If this JLCPCB at work, I would never use them for my designs.
Yes, because I use standard components, if you redesign this board with SMD components you could reduce its size up to four times. however JLCPCB didn't design this PCB.. I designed the PCB in this way and JLCPCB just made the PCB according to my specifications.
@@Stefano91ste And I agree with you here. It all depends on how you design the card. I like your design! Nothing is better than how you do it yourself. I did the same with my PCB. This : www.ebay.com/itm/TrasMaTech-RC-Products-RC-Lights-K001-FlySky-compatible/184361409271 is the 3rd revision. Got it finally down to 15x20mm (Pretty tiny) I also used JLCPCB! Keep up your PCB design and ideas!

Stefano Hi! first of all congratulations because you have to be Italian (I'm Sardinian), second you are very good !!! I ask you something, if you wanted to introduce 3mm LEDs or even those SMd micro LEDs how do things change in resistors or capacitors? thanks in advance, I'll follow you!
Ciao Massimiliano! Ti ringrazio, e si sono Italiano (Lombardia) Se tu volessi usare LED da 3mm non c'è bisogno di eseguire nessuna modifica, poiché sono identici a quelli da 5mm a parte nel formato. Per i LED SMD idem, salvo che non siano specificati dal costruttore voltaggi di esercizio più bassi per quei LED. In quel caso dovrebbe bastare sostituire la resistenza da 470Ω con una da 560Ω e le due da 330Ω con due da 470Ω - Lascio anche la traduzione in inglese della risposta per chiunque legga i commenti :) - Hello Massimiliano! Thank you, and yes I am Italian (Lombardia) If you want to use 3mm LEDs there is no need to make any modifications, as they are identical to the 5mm ones apart in size. For SMD LEDs is the same, unless specified by the manufacturer, lower operating voltages for those LEDs. In that case it should be enough to replace the 470Ω resistor with one of 560Ω and the two of 330Ω with two of 470Ω

@@Stefano91ste Thanks for your update Brother
What would it take to make this run 10 watt led’s? Looking to make something for my ultralight airplane
I would be willing to pay you to design something.
Hi, the only solution would be to add power transistors to each led, but the circuit would become heavy and absorb a lot of current
HI Hope u are doing good..

1) can we power the circuit directly from the reciver that is around 5volt

hi matey. would this circuit work using micro 0402 SMD's instead of the 3 or 5mm led? with thanks
Hi are you able to design one with 2 ch control from radio, 1ch for nav lights and 1 ch for landing lights, power 4v to 7.4v
Nice 👍
Thank you:)

Genial 😍
Thanks :)
where do I buy the components?
Hi, on Aliexpress, Banggood, LCSC and Local shops
Ic timer 555 and counter 4017, like video
Thank you:)
Super cool excelent wwwwwoooooooo
it should be
2 blink at the back
1 at the front
2 / 1
2 / 1
2 / 1
Look better on 0.5x speed
