Ok. What I'd do then would be find somewhere inside of it to tuck it in so all it does is light up the insides, and take a sharpie and black out the sides so it doesn't show through. That way, no. 1, you can easilly put it back if you ever want to, and no. 2, if you want a look inside, you can just have a light inside shining on the gears and whatnot.

Yeah, it's a little annoying with that LED blinding blue. What they need is a red in the rear and green in the front or something so you can tell which way it's going in the dark. That's what I hate-you can't fly it outside except at night, but it's hard to see which way its going.

If I was "allowed" to buy more, I'd have a third one with a white LED in front off of a 102 or something, and the red/blue put in the rear, under the tailboom, connected to the supports. Then, I'd paint it dark charcoal grey with red trim and red outlined USAC logo. (Just like a nightfighter hellcat)

Something that I'll have to say is it's really awesome to watch with Florence and the Machine's "Shake it out" in the background.

There's not much point in it. You're going to spend more time getting ot the wires and cutting them than you'll gain by not having the miniscule draw. These LED's only draw something rediculously small like 1 milliamp or something, and only decrease flighttime by a second or something like that. Every time anybody says about cutting out the led in the 107, (ir in this case a 111) I don't stop them, but just for the sake of what you're trying to acomplish, it's about nothingness. If these were old-fashioned lightbulbs, they'd draw 2 watts, and might be worth taking out. But at half a watt or whatever, the only real reason to take one out is if it's a dead heli and you want a light on a different one.
