Strobes lights for MP4

Keep in mind that the mini 4 Pro is only under 250 grams with the mini 4 pro standard battery, and even at that, just barely. You cannot use a mini 3 battery and remain under 250 grams, nevermind any other attachments such as strobes.
If you use ANY strobe you will need to register the aircraft and be a licensed pilot to fly legally at night.
Thanks for that info. Very important, indeed.

I am from Canada and hold a Basic Operations Certificate, which allows me to fly at night with a drone up to 25kg.
I have ONE (white) strobe light (a Vifly weighing 5.9g) which I mount on my M4P: on top for night flying and on the bottom for day flights. My experience is that the center of gravity has not been affected by this addition. However, does anyone have experience with the addition of 2 more strobe lights (e.g. red and green) to serve as position lights on the front legs, and any impact this may have had on the aircraft's center of gravity?

Adding two more lights of similar weight on the front legs won't be noticeable. The drone's software modulates the motor speeds to handle the small imbalance.

I use a single white strobe on my drones, but members here have used four lights with separate mounts. I use good Velcro for attaching strobes and have never had a problem.
