Hi All,

The connection method used for the LEDs on an AA Rx should be:

Positive LED(long lead) to a 100ohm resistor to lipo +.
Negative LED(short lead) to power switch "on" pad.

The LEDs will work when the Rx is on and won't vary with throttle settings. The 3 LEDs Tim used will reduce the flight time by about 1 - 1 1/2min. with no loss of power during flight. No extra load is placed on the output transistors. A second switch could be installed so the LEDs could be turned off during daytime flying, or a small plug could be added.
There is a nice line drawing in the doc for those not familiar with electronics, schematics, symbols and such.
Also, is a new doc of foam weights by manufacturer. If you have some not listed, please submit!
