I don't believe no. You should space it from the foam, the foam will insulate the back removing over half the heat-sinking potential.

Good point, I will come up with some sort of enclosure or something with air scoops hehe.
Hopefully they arrive soon so I can actually do some testing, I have so much stuff to do for this plane I feel like I will be lucky to have it flying in a month!
Any progress on this Hugo? VERY interested!

Thinking about buying a couple of these and mounting the LED with its reflector on my airplane. Would still have to make my own driver circuit, but I'm pretty confident I can handle that.

Hugo,
I am not so interested in the LED's, but would love to buy some drivers from you. Think you could come up with a kit for that, wouldn't mind soldering it together myself. Would also buy the LED's, but it would probably be hard to beat prices found on the internet. A driver kit should work well for you, couple small components in a bag, should be too much overhead. I'm just too lazy to track down all the componenents.

Off the shelf drivers don't please me that much, so I am looking at designing my own drivers.Originally Posted by philthyy
The flashlight you linked have its own driver that work on 1S.
E-chaser,
The driver I want to design is exactly that, hook up you own light or have a ready-to-light unit.

I started the project features laydown:
RC controlled LED dimming (0-4A)
Button (lo/med/hi/off) if no rc channel is available.
Cycling main power quickly cycle trough (lo/med/hi/off) for flahlight modders.
Optional temperature sensor for LED protection.
Low voltage lipo protection
2-4S supply
1-4 LED load
Stackable architecture to control multiples strings with same channel/button.

I'll be interested if it won't be too expensive!
Don't steal, the government hates competition.
I'm looking at a 40$ retail price.

Interested. How soon?
