I don’t never use power tools either, I never in that much of a hurry, working on them is just as much fun as driving well driving is more funner, but you know what I mean, love this hobby MetA lot of great people, a real good on the electronics, so I appreciate you sharing have a great day
I got the same bag of those clips from ace hardware near me. 👍🏼🇺🇸 I also use the fs gt5 I use the channel 4 toggle for my winch. Works nice it’s got the release/ retract and neutral settings so it’s perfect.
I have the same radio can you show how everything works on it and what it means like the lights i could not get them to work so I'm going to try do what you did and see if it works 👍
@@thecollectorrc ya when I plug my lights in they stay on like 3rd ch it doesn't matter if it 3 4 5 or 6 my lights stay on and I can't do anything on or off they stay on
So, when connected to channel 5 and 6 you're using the dials correct? If so then twist the dials from one end to the next quickly and hopefully you'll see the lights change modes. If you leave the dials at 1/2 turn when you've selected your mode you can continue to switch modes from where you stopped. If after you've selected your mode and you moved the dial to "off/0" just move the dial to 1/2 turn and it'll shut off.
These are so cool! Thinking about getting a light bar light that. Would this work for my new axial scx10 II? Wondering how I would change the light colors? Sorry for all the questions new to RC here
Glad to help....So the easiest way is having a transmitter that has at least 3 channels minimum, but recommended 5 channel is ideal. Plug the lights into an empty channel that has either a dial or button on the remote (Transmitter). When the RC powers up you'll see the L. Bar turn on then turn off or flash white for a second. Now the mode select on a button is operated by pressing the button quickly and you should see it cycle through its 20 modes. The mode select using a dial is operated by quickly moving the dial rotational left and right. If you decide to purchase and need assistance we have a F.B. group (The Collector RC) where one of us 4 can walk you through the steps. Hope this helps.
@@thecollectorrc wow thank you for the detailed reply! I will have to look into this. I have the stock Tactic TR325 2.4GHz 3 channel receiver, with the TTX200 2.4GHz transmitter. Not sure if these would work. Can't believe how cheap it is too. I've been looking at some of the pro line stuff and it looks nice but it's hella expensive. I will definitely reach out to you if I need any help. Thank you!
So sorry for the delayed response. We had to be creative with mounting. The 10-iii we got lucky and managed to get the holes perfectly and the lights just installed with no actual mounts. Literally just sat inside the hole freely.
Awesome! Do you think they could be cut down for the scx24? I'm having a hard time finding light bars and even cool headlights (or any headlights, for that matter)
I personally use either channel 5 or 6 which are technically potentiometers (rotational dials) on the FS-GT5 transmitter. It's tricky to explain so the easiest way to figure it out is to quickly rotate one of those dials and you'll see it turn on and go throw each mode. If you need a better example you can temporarily (or permanently) Join our Facebook group "TheCollectorRC" and just ask. We'll provide a video explaining how it all works. 😉
Ok. I'm not 100% on that particular RC, but if you have a (3 plug) channel #3 and a switch on controller then it should work. The concern would be in the power/voltage area and if your ESC has enough to power the lights.
It's what the ESC allows through. Remember E-Electronic, S-speed, C-control so it limits voltage and then gives you a range using a potentiometer aka (throttle) to control......tech stuff 😆. You should be good to use with what you have.
As long as you have a free channel in your receiver and a transmitter that can control that said channel. So, CH3 would work if your controller has a dial/switch/button for 3rd channel.
I need some major help I’ve been trying to get this working on my Mojave and I can’t figure it out, every time I would turn the light bar on it would just go blue and red and go white for 5sec and cut off, Idk what I’m doing wrong and I don’t know how to exactly set this up, because I seen in your video it was simple but on the Mojave I’m running the SLT3 spektrum controller so I’m not sure what to do
It's late currently where we're at, but I'll respond again tomorrow to help you out with your light issue. Sorry you're having issues, for it can be a pain for some. 😁
@@thecollectorrc well at first I was gonna connect a RF remote controller system like the ones you buy ones you buy on eBay but it won’t work. I wanna run it on my Mojave witch comes with the SLT3 spektrum controller
Great information!! Thank you. Just added a new SCX10 III to my collection….trying to add lighting to the rig!
Right on buddy, it’s the beauty of the Hobby, it’s my passion I love it, appreciate you sharing I’m watching now

Wow that’s a awesome light kit, have to get me one
Yeah right on I like my wires clean, thanks for the tip on in there zip tie holders heading to Ace hardware yeah
Thanks for sharing 👍

Nice a lot of information in this vid I just subbed I'm looking for a light bar for my Jeep 🤘🏻🤜🏻🤛🏻
Do you have a video of the headlight install? I’m guess you have to cut out the buckets of the headlight where the body is correct?
I have a DX5 RUGGED & I can’t seem to get this to work
If you can help me this it would mean so much lmao
Are you on a dial or button channel?
I have the same radio can you show how everything works on it and what it means like the lights i could not get them to work so I'm going to try do what you did and see if it works 👍
Give us about a day or two and we'll help you out with video short 😁.

@@thecollectorrc I did what you did on the video and no changes it stay on they are headlights and brake lights thats it

How did you mount the headlight I got the same ones just trying to figure out how to mount them?
So sorry for the delayed response. We had to be creative with mounting. The 10-iii we got lucky and managed to get the holes perfectly and the lights just installed with no actual mounts. Literally just sat inside the hole freely.
Hey how’s it going I have a dx5 rugged and can’t get this to work any ideas? I’m on a button channel
Awesome! Do you think they could be cut down for the scx24? I'm having a hard time finding light bars and even cool headlights (or any headlights, for that matter)
These would be unfortunately to big to fit in the scx24.
If I get this how would I make it change light patterns on my transmitter?
I personally use either channel 5 or 6 which are technically potentiometers (rotational dials) on the FS-GT5 transmitter. It's tricky to explain so the easiest way to figure it out is to quickly rotate one of those dials and you'll see it turn on and go throw each mode.

Hello, I need a quick reply, it will work for jlb cheetah? . Thank you for the quick reply 🙏
It's all in the Receiver and ESC. As long as you have the channels to spare and a transmitter to control the lights.
@@thecollectorrc on esc there is a connector on channel 3 and on the controller there is a channel switch with three positions
Ok. I'm not 100% on that particular RC, but if you have a (3 plug) channel #3 and a switch on controller then it should work. The concern would be in the power/voltage area and if your ESC has enough to power the lights.
@@thecollectorrc how do I know if I have enough voltage? if it has anything to do with the battery, then there is 3S
It's what the ESC allows through. Remember E-Electronic, S-speed, C-control so it limits voltage and then gives you a range using a potentiometer aka (throttle) to control......tech stuff 😆.
You should be good to use with what you have.
Can this work on a rtg crawler?

@@thecollectorrc okay thanks
@@thecollectorrc what about the light var
Light Bar works the same way.
Hi, great build! How did you connect the halo lights to the light bucket?
I used my reamer. Made the hole just slightly smaller for a tight fit with no glue or mounts.
Can it do 8.4V?
I would need to look at specs to see, but I don't believe that was recommended.
Ok thank you ❤️
Would it fit a 1/16 car ?
I think they'd be to big. Either the headlights or the light bar, but I like challenging projects so I'd find a way 😆.

@@thecollectorrc thanks man I appreciate yeah it’s definitely a struggle lol
What controller/receiver are you using?
And what channel are you in. Are you controlling the light with a dial or button?
