We have begun working on a smaller and more efficient version of the power flare. As seen in the picture below the size has been reduced greatly and a hook whole has been added to the top of the flare. The hook whole is there so that the flare can be attached to the drone by a hook suspending it in the air until the hook releases the flare onto the ground.
Method of power:
The LED's will be lit by a 9 volt battery that is contained on the inside of shell. To turn the LED's off and on we have reverse engineered the switch to a battery holder and applied it to the LED strip and the 9 volt battery. To attach the switch to our battery we had to sauder the power strips negative wire to the ground of the switch, an connect the single wire of the switch to negative of the 9v battery. Then connect the power wire of the LED strip to the battery.
