These flash the landing lights so that you can been more easily while in the air. This is built into the Vertical Power system, or you can buy and wire a separate "black box" to do this.

More advanced ones (like Vertical Power) will warm up the lights for a short period of time before flashing, and/or turn off the pulsing automatically on the ground and turn it on automatically in the air.

I wig wag them on the ground to try and get the attention of all the
idiot drivers running around on the taxiways not looking out for
airplanes. I definitely don't want to turn 'em off automatically on the
ground.

Pat,

You can always turn off the feature so it will wig-wag all the time if that's what you want. Smile Nice thing is it is configurable using menus (to match each builder's needs) rather than hard wired.

Yes, HID lights need a warm-up period then you can begin wig-wag. The warm up and transition to wig-wag is all automatic.

This feature is coming in the next software release, about mid-year 2009. Current customers or customer who purchase prior to the software upgrade can upgrade for free.
