Question 1

The recommended voltage is 5volt!  will it work with 5,5 and 6 vdc?

Accepted Answer

I do not have them installed on my plane yet. But have tested them hooked up to a Flysky receiver, using both 4 cell (at 5.3v) and 5 cell (at 7.2V) NiMH receiver packs. Both worked fine. I only tested for a couple of minutes at each voltage, but did not notice the controller board getting hot with either. I will note that the first one of these I received did not work. It was in a plastic bag, not in an anti static bag. I think is was a defective return. Amazon promptly replaced it. The second one came in a sealed anti static bag. It worked perfectly. So if you order them pay attention to how they come packaged.

Question 2

When i plug these into my reciever with 4 stips my esc immediatly gets hot. is this normal? i am using these in a hobbyking walrus.2200 3s

Accepted Answer

If you use 4 LED strips, the total current consumption is about 2A.  usually, there is a BEC on the ESC like HobbyKing or others, but the max current is about 3A or less. normally the BEC on the ESC will get hot easily when current is higher.  
So use one of two methods to solve this problem. 
1: you can use extra UBEC to supply a 5V power to the light
2: cut the LED strip short to lower current consumption

Question 3

Volantex rtf p51 mustang 768-1 mm has aux toggle on tranmitter also on receiver an open port why wont these lights work with this transmitter

Accepted Answer

Make sure your toggle switch is bound to the right channel on your receiver. It should work if everything is hooked up properly.

Question 4

Are these water proof

Accepted Answer

To reduce weight, there is no waterproof layer on the light strip. So the light strip is super light. Normally, if the plane does not land on the river, it will be OK.  
You can cover the LED light strip with scotch tape to make it waterproof.
