Navigation Lights December 2012

In December 2012 a night shoot was held at FAST. I thought it would be nice to get the navigation lights working on XS420. Now bearing in mind there is no wiring or power to the Lightning, how would this be achieved. I hit on the idea of using Maglite torches mounted behind the lens of the light. This worked well and gave XS420 a bit of life and light for the night shoot.
