LOL. thanks for all of the comments....
What I did was design this using a simple design software. I used Photoshop. I took it to a sign shop and they printed it on a normal 2' X 2' plexiglass panel.
the lights I got from Pep Boys. they are simple auto LED lights with a power converter...
Still waiting on the cross lights that will light up the landing area besides the strobes.
you can see this from about 1 mile away at 400 Ft. didn't go any further than that, or Higher.
the base is a turn and bank base that allows me to level it. this is very cool if you need to do an IMU cal. my back yard where I launch from a lot is a hill. so the Pad needed to level for me.
so here are the costs....
Landing Pad = $100.00 USD
LED Lighting = $50.00 USD
Stand = $30.00 USD
Enjoyment = Priceless. |
