iPhone remote control LED lights on 1:18 M3

[Beastman]

Hi

Here's a video and a pic or two of my kyosho 1:18 e46 m3.

It's has csl wheels added and csl style bootlid and has been re sprayed in carbon black so it is just like my real car.

The lights are controlled by my iphone5 using the L5 remote app.

Wow! I love the lighting kit, especially in the dashboard.

Where did you get the kit and app from?

Thanks!

The app is called "L5". It allows you to design your own remote, and is free to download. It was designed for people to have all their TV remotes in one place. Only problem is they require you to buy an adaptor as the iphone doesn't have an IR transmitter ( about 20-30 quid on eBay/ amazon).

I bought the LEDs from expressmodels.co.uk, the micro and mini LEDs came in handy a lot!

I control them using a picaxe 20x2 chip which was fairly easy to program and an IR reciever.

That looks fantastic. Wish I had the skills and patience to do projects like that.
