What do I need for setting up the 450 for night fly? Is the cold wire that Aline has good? I see they have night baldes too but what do you guys use for brands and what color wire is the best at night.
Also how is the wire powered?
Anyone with some pictures of your set up would help me.
Thanks Jw

the cold lights from align will work.
you will need a glow driver for em and a small battery.
i have a small 1s 300 mah lipo
i would suggest that you get the complete package for the blades for your first set.
they come with the charger needed to keep em goin.
as far as color use what ever color you want ...but note some find the blue hard to see.
i have green on the canopy and orange on the tail.
heres some pics :D

Heres a pic of my night setup, I used to use the 3s 800mah but it was too much weight to do 3d so I tried hooking it up directly to where my pack where it meets the ESC and it seems to work fine.. I think I am getting slightly shorter flight times but its not bad and the heli is better ballanced..
A vid of it spinning up on my table..
