Default Kangaroo Flashlight!

I got bored one night and cut the nose of my Kangaroo off and installed an LED flashlight. I think it turned out great, plus it was cheap! Also, if I need a light around the house, I can just grab Kangaroo! Ahh, I knew these jets were good for something else, besides fun at the flying field.

Carlos, we have to do that to yours!

I think we'll hook it up to a switch so it's only on when the gear come down though so we can see what we're doing

I like how he did the boomerang with two lights. Did he hook them up to switches or are they a manual type operation? Mine does not have a switch, so I just turn it on prior to starting the turbine and fly with it "on" the whole time. I plan on putting a servo activated switch to control the operation, but if I need the kangaroo around the house as a light source, I would have to carry my transmitter too!
