Its night gear for heli's. They sell them at various web sites.

All the equipment needed is listed there. Glow wire, drivers for the wire, and night blades with embedded LEDs.

Truth to tell, night flying is easier:

1. You're likely to have the sky to yourself
2. Orientation is easier, because you can not only see the pod and boom of the heli, but the rotor disk is now visible thanks to the night blades

I really enjoy flying at night, even if I don't do anything particularly interesting. It's just another way to have fun with helis, and not everybody does it, which lends a cool factor to it.

They work fine on my computer. Make sure you have the latest update to Windows Media Player.
