Found out yesterday that my strobes are not functioning...No power is getting to the strobe bulbs when the system is energized.
Looking at prices for replacement Whelen parts (HDACF power supply and bulbs) put me on the search for an LED based upgrade. Flyleds looks like they have something very close to adrop in replacement which would allow me to continue to use the current wiring and maybe shed a couple pounds too.
I think what I need to do is:
- Replace the Whelen HDACF power supply with the Flyleds strobe system replacement controller
-Replace the wingtip strobe/Nav lights with "The Essentials" kit (pre-soldered)
-Replace the tail light with the tail light kit
- Add the wigwag module to add that functionality to the strobes
Landing light upgrade will be at some point in the future.
Has anyone done this upgrade, and is it as straightforward as it sounds?
