Re: OI LEDs on the 5v Aux
I don't foresee any negative consequences as long as it's legal and doesn't draw too much power. Remember that the 5V circuit on the RC tops out at one amp, so you only have five watts available, and some of that would be great to use on sensors and switches!

You might want to do a step-down from a 12V output (or get 12V LEDS) and put the circuit on a spike.
