Default RE: Quick, easy, and cheap LED control

IF all went well you can now try it out

You will have to tinker with your controllers D/R, arm position, and trim to make it have a smaller throw like in this video.

After this you will want to coat the exposed sections of wire with an insulator so you don't accidentally short it out. I used shoe goo to cover it (ran out of liquid electrical tape)

all that is left is mount the LED's and you are done.

Heres a quick demo of the complete product.

Total time spent building this(outside of glue drying) was around 5 minutes.

I hope someone will find this useful. If its hard to understand just point out where, and I'll see if I can clarify it.
