Ok I really want to add an RII (Remote Ignition Interrupter) light to add to the scale look of my Raminator. I found a perfect led but have a couple questions about tying it to what I want it to do. It is gonna be too hard to make it flash when the engine kill is active and solid when on. So at this point I would be happy if I could just have it off when engine kill is active and on when engine kill is not active (i.e. engine is ready to run and can fire). I know on a servo wire there is a power, ground and a signal wire.
Not being an electrical genius, could I run a futaba splitter on the channel that has my engine kill, then on thay same channel run the engine kill switch and this light?
In theory I think it would work if I pinned the led to plug into the receiver channel splitter. I would just pin the positive and negative as there is no signal obviously for the led.
You guys think this would work or cause issues. Lord knows I don't wanna toast my receiver or my engine kill switch. Last resort is just run the RII light off a 9v and just manually turn it on and off...lame..lol!
Thoughts?
