How a (different) LCD backlight would look on your RC transmitter? Here's one sample of common samples (normal and inverted).

According to wikipedia, rhodopsin is a biological pigment in the photoreceptor cells of the retina, responsible for low light vision. It is highly sensitive to green and blue light, bleaching very fast. It takes up to 45 minutes to regenerate.


Thus, if you want to fly in night mode, an inverted red LCD display would be the best option for your RC transmitter. Unfortunately I haven't found one for the Turnigy 9x transmitter yet.

Tracking dates pentru colete prin Posta Romana sau GLS de la Hobby King (International sau Germania):

- Ce vine din Hong Kong / Singapore prin EMS, face 2-3 zile pana pune mana Posta Romana pe pachet.
- Ce vine ca air mail registered, face vreo saptamana jumate aproape doua pana la fel, la Posta Romana.
- Daca aveti baterii LiPO sau LiFePO4, prin airmail dureaza mai mult, pentru ca nu toti vor sa transporte chestii inflamabile.

Niste sample-uri de tracking de la Hobby King:

Mentiune, am urmarit tracking-ul pe site-urile de plecare:
https://gls-group.eu/EU/en/parcel-tracking pentru GLS (vine direct la usa nu prin posta)

Iar apoi pe site-ul postei Romane (nu apare nimic pana nu intra in tara la Otopeni pt EMS sau BSI pt Airmail):


Transport 4, de la Hobby King warehouse Germania prin GLS:
Sper sa va fie de folos daca asteptati cu nerabdare un colet, sa stiti prin ce treceti.

ATENTIE!
Daca urmariti pe site-ul Postei tracking-ul, cand apare Avizat Oficiul Postal 67, atunci mergeti direct acolo cu buletinul si tracking number-ul. 
Altfel, avizul va vine in cutie peste 4 ZILE!!!!

La Posta, zambiti larg, fiti draguti si e posibil sa nu va taxeze, daca valoarea e sub 50 USD, fara transport (cazul meu). Ce e peste, se aplica TVA (vamesul a fost dragut si mi-a luat valoarea fara transport si cand m-a taxat).
