    Here's my FE LED project. What's in the picture is a JAE12 sponson with 8 LED's in the sponson overhang and one in the sponson transom. The tub has 2 white LED's in the nose and 4 red LED's in the transom. The tub was also widened

      I have a 2 channel receiver and was hoping to use the BAT slot, but don't think it will work.
      You can use an HPI reverse mixer and a receiver switch to operate many lights. When you hold your throttle forward (reverse) for three seconds, it sends a signal to a servo - or receiver switch that can handle up to 30v and 10A - that's a lot of lights! Then just hold the throttle forward again to turn them off. Easy, electronic method for a two channel Tx. I have an HPI mixer available in the Items For Sale section.

        Danny,
        What did you use to trigger the LED's? To make them flash in sequence like that?

            Did you build it or purchase it?

              I had a guy build it for me.
