Thanks for the link mate - I will try both methods (belt and braces approach)lmcq11 wrote:I buy these cheap LEDs by the dozens for less than $2 with free shipping, has 2 white 5mm headlights and 2 red 3mm taillights. Pre-wired with resistor and connector to fit the receiver, or I simply cut the connector to adapt to board headlight wiring and control. I never had one of these burn no matter what I did to them.

Re: LED instalation
A very useful bit of kit, Rad- the small step down regulator. I use a mains-powered variable step-down DC power supply. It cost a wee bit more than the one you use- but, I really must get one like yours, as it's so much more portable!
Mine has a multi-connector on it which is very useful for all sorts of RC work, and beyond..
Your accent, by the way, reminds me a bit of Fernando Alonso- a great driver, and someone for the Spanish to be proud of Who knows..one of these days, you'll come up with a world renown-winning must-have gadget
