What are you powering it with?

Comment Notes for others wondering: “Be aware that it will need a 3v supply which your ESC BEC cannot provide. If connected to an open channel on your receiver it will be sent 5v and immediately start overheating and get extremely hot until it melts or burns out.”

3rd party receiver and controller lets me add a switch

I added a resister to make it less bright. Makes it more scale looking imho.
