not being a wiseguy, but on a sunny day in an open field, how much more will a strobe flash increase your vlos?
I'm not a distance flyer and keep it in VLOS most times.
I use the strobes during the day so that I can easily acquire the aircraft when flying along the river or lake when it's only twenty feet above the surface and it blends in with the background of trees, rocks, etc.
It's much easier to look for a flash of light instead of a gray plastic drone against the background.
