8 LED Racing Buggy Brake Light
This is intended to be fitted to the rear of modern 1/10 racing buggies, beneath the wing.
The example pictures show it fitted to an XRAY XB2 and a Yokomo YZ-2.
I usually cut out a small section of transparent plastic packaging slightly bigger than the board. The LED board is then stuck to the rear of this using a double-sided pad. With the LEDs showing through the transparent plastic this arrangement offers some protection against rear-end impacts.
I have also seen some drivers design and make their own 3D-printed brackets.
On the XRAY XB-2, I used a piece of packaging with a right angle and used this to fit it to the wing mounting points with holes on either side through which the wing mounting screws pass.
In the case of the Yokomo YZ-2 a flat piece of transparent plastic packaging was used. This conveniently fits between the rear of the transmission case and the anti-roll bar holder with a hole either side for the screws to pass through.
Comes with a servo Y-lead and 20cm servo extension lead.
If you have an unused ch.3 on your receiver, it's usually possible to configure it via your transmitter to duplicate the throttle/ESC signal (usually ch.2) using channel mixing (see your transmitter manual). The LED board can be connected to this without a Y-lead, making for a neater installation.
