I know quality isn't great, but still, I'm glad I did my first night flight with my E7

Looks sweet.  I think I might be building a E6 or E7 soon as a night flyer also.  Nice work

I find the LEDs far too bright. You have to have an adjustable BEC that will let you just get them all to light up. I tried a castle 10amp at first and got the amount of light just right, but 3 flights in the damn thing burned out in flight. Needless to say I'm using another WR unit now.

 Glow string is the way to go in my opinion.

Glow string is not bright enough for me.

What voltage are you running the lights at?

3S 11.1. I have already tried on 2S, not bright enough for me.
