Curtek Navigation Lighting System



Here is some information for all of you who can not get enough flying in. Best time to fly is at dawn and dusk when the wind has not picked up yet or already has died down. But you say it gets hard to see your aiplane and or you are haveing a really hard time "flying the shadow". Well this product should do the trick.

Curtek has a product that looks like a real neat setup without adding too much weight to your aircraft. Here is a page on Mathew's site that has some really good video shots of his product in action.

The e Zone has a couple of reviews on his system. First in April 2003 Curtek Navigation Lighting System and then January 2004 using a Dusk Stik The first review goes into a lot of detail with regard to installation and testing of the equipment on the aircraft. A really nice feature is the following:
When your battery runs low and your motor shuts off the LEDs stay lit. They continued to work for quite some time and I always landed with power to spare. However, should you use these at the slope with a glider the LEDs will all start to flash when the voltage to the receiver is getting low.

Not bad for ~$70 check it out...
