No but I have A HeliCat that is modified so the heli and thrust sections glow! The log loiter time of the heli part is great fun! I have not flown it in a long time but it was very easy to make! I also modified a HeliCat with LED on the blade tips. That one looks cool. I am hoping to have my grandchildren build and fly a set at Rock Stock. These are inexpensive Scout level projects. Maybe we can get a helicat drag race going?

As an example Control has 4 chanels, you can use two for dual deploy, one for airstarts and the last for 'chute release with no addtional systems.
