Build a night flyer that will wow the crowds!

By Lee Estingoy

Every now and then, I hear a little voice that commands me to do things. My little voice came up with a winner recently. I had a Multiplex Acromaster kit waiting to be assembled. I noted that the fuselage and wings are actually made in a clamshell fashion with hollows inside to save weight. Furthermore, the Elapor foam glows very nicely when illuminated from within. These hollows offered very neat and tidy little cells that my voice thought would work well to contain light-emitting diodes (LEDs) to make a great night flyer. My voice and I set out to make that happen. Here are the results and a quick how-to.
