Led & Fibre Optic Light Kit
Star Wars - Millennium Falcon
Revell Version 2

This light kit has been designed and built primarily for use with the Revell Easy Kit 1:72 Falcon models:

 06658, 85-1854, 06694, 85-1822, 06718.

It can also be used with the Fine Molds 1:72.

The set (along with the majority of our light kits) is completely pre-wired and ready to install. No electronic work required, just drill fitting holes as required in your model.

The set is run by two 9v batteries (not included), and has two slide switch units fitted next to the battery clips.

This set is an upgrade to our original Revell Falcon Light Kit, and features more detailed underside and side panel fibre optic lighting.

LED Colours & Intended Uses As Follows:


Cockpit Detail:
x1 Colour changing red/green/blue 1mm fibre optic led, five fibres, each fibre 100mm long from light source.
x1  3mm Warm White led.

Underside Detail:
x4  5mm Warm White Leds
x4  3mm Warm White Leds
x1  2-strand red fibre unit for underside lower front lights
x4  5-strand cool white fibre units
x1  3mm Ultra Violet led for underside central clear section.
x1  3mm Warm White for top central clear section.

Side Panels:
x2  4-strand red fibre units.

Ramp
x1  3mm Warm White led.

Front Lights
x2  3mm Cool White leds.

Sublight Drive Engine
x1  x12 SMD Led Strip - Neon Blue - 20cm Long.

The led strip works very well with the blue plastic booster strip part supplied as standard with the Revell Easy Kits. Fitting the self adhesive led strip just inside this part on the grey curved section, and using the standard blue plastic booster part eliminates the hassle of having to use other methods to diffuse the light, eg plastic corrugate.
It is also a lot more effective than the common six led solution, as it provides more even light across the whole area.

The light kit is fitted with screw terminal blocks, making it easier to take apart and install the switch and battery wires. There are two of these, each 500mm long, running to a 9v battery clip.
An spdt slide switch is fitted to each on a 200mm wire, next to the battery clip, which can easily be fitted in the models display stand.

Each led has 180mm wire, that runs to the terminal connector. Please see the photos for better understanding.


We use 1mm fibre optic, which gives the best lighting performance for the scale.

The fibre optics can carefully be cut to size to fit the model. Wire lengths can also be altered by the model builder if necessary.

Requires x2 9volt battery (not included).
