skanky pit strobe

[ruprecht]

I was after something that let the missus know when I was flying as sort of a "do not disturb" sign and I thought of an aircraft strobe. So I made one out of some electronic components and a plastic cup :)
Check pitblog (http://pitblog.radsy.com) for photos, a movie showing it in operation and schematics if you want to build one yourself. Total cost about AUD $20.

Nice Ruprecht. I was thinking of a strobe myself. Learning how to make one like yours will certainly be easier than designing one myself. Thanks.
