Spot Light was 5.6 oz. It is called and EDC light. It stands for Every Day Carry. It was fixed and velcroed to the left side of the drone. You can see the golf balls in the trash bins and the square bin. There must be thousands of them.

When flying foward or backward, the angle of the camera has to be changed to match the new position of the light.
Remember, the light isn't on a gimbal, so it moves with the tilt of the drone.

Thanks for posting and the info on the light.
Somehow though, it would seem there might be something “questionable” about doing this. IDK.
 
Like the light. Will give it a try for spotting fish at night but probably on my Phantoms. I already use them for fishing and have plenty of mounting locations.
