Can't get PGYTech LED prop guards to change colors on my M2P

[PwrBoss302]

I don't know if I'm doing something wrong but I can't get my LED prop guards to change from a solid blue to flashing or other colors. I have my C1 button set to turn off front Head LEDs. It should be changing the prop guards effects as well. If anybody has some kind of input I'd really appreciate it.
Thanks

Do you have a link as to where you bought them? Great idea by the way.

Bought them at Amazon.com on Dec. 29th

After checking more on the internet, I contacted PGYTECH and they said you may have to jam them in harder. If they're loose at all, they won't work. Problem solved.

They look great at night, and offer the protection of prop guards. Win-win.

Yeah. I'm always hesitant to push things in hard or snap them on where it looks like it may damage the drone. At least now I know they work. I was going to send them back and get the regular prop guards. Glad I didn't. Can't wait for spring to get some night shots of it. It creates some cool light patterns.

I used to have night blades for my old Trex helicopter. Te rotating blades made it look awesome especially if there were a bunch of guys flying together at a fly-in.

This is not me, but a good example.

I've got a set of LED props for my Mavic Air. They look a lot like that.

Be careful with those! The ones you see in that video are $150 a pair!

Wow!

Wow!

Lighted prop guards are just a great idea. It's tough to fly at night and obstacle avoidance doesn't work, so you have found the answer to night flying without too much risk .

How do you control "separate" lights with the RC's buttons?

Maybe turn on once its red. Next time you turn it on its blue. In cycles.

You set either C1 or C2 to turn off/on front LEDs. When you keep hitting the button to turn the front LEDs on or off, the props change colors and eventually start strobing.

You set either C1 or C2 to turn off/on front LEDs. When you keep hitting the button to turn the front LEDs on or off, the props change colors and eventually start strobing.

Oh, some sort of photo-electric sensor reacts to the drone's front LEDs.
