A lot use the combo nav/strobe/position lights on the wingtips that
have the white tail light on the aft side of both tips.

Something like http://www.aeroflash.com/aeroflash_nav_ ... sition.php

or pay twice as much for the same thing in Whelen.

FWIW

Gents,

Well, the first subkit has arrived, and I figure that I will start the process with the rudder. I searched the archives and came up with very little on rudder construction. Before I leap off the diving board here I was wondering:

a. I have not seen any night position (tail) lights on the rudder of the two dozen completed plane photos I have looked at. What have most folks done in terms of preparing for a later tail light installation?

b. Any other hints or tips I need before starting on this subassembly?

Thanks in advance!

Rich,

I think a lot of people are using just wing-tip combination position
lights, usually with strobes too. I'm using the GS-AIR LED combo package
(http://tinyurl.com/e6tp3) for its reliability, very low current drain,
and light weight.

On Super Rebel N96CS, I used combination wing-tip position and strobes;
these have a white "tail-light" on each wing tip. Seems to work great and
uses one less wire that would run the length pf the fuselage and through the
vertical stab. post.

Gents,

Well, the first subkit has arrived, and I figure that I will start the
process with the rudder. I searched the archives and came up with very
