Let your Drone excel in the night with the Lumecube Strobe
If you’ve ever avoided flying your drone at night because of lack of visibility, Lumecube’s Drone Strobe should be your next purchase.
Whether the aim of your drone flying is photography or fun, the Drone Strobe will give you a safer, easier and more enjoyable experience.
Made to last in any weather no matter the chosen light colour, the strobe is visible from over three miles away. With multiple flashing modes and able to flash at up to 60 strobes per minute, the Lumecube Strobe is compatible with any drone on the market. Easily mounted onto your drone with the 3M Dual Lock Mount, the strobe light will last for up to six hours on its fastest strobe setting. Fortunately, even with that incredible battery life, the Drone strobe is easily charged thanks to its micro usb charging port.
Key Features
Small, light and powerful with a strong battery life and sitting on top of your drone, the strobe from Lumecube will not affect the performance, camera or flight of your drone and the light will last as long in the air as it can and then some.
With a light so bright that you might not want to look at it in close proximity, the Drone Strobe is perfect for any nighttime operation. Let your drone run free into the night and know where it is at all times.
No matter what drone you own, this strobe is for you. Easily placed on top of any drone you can buy on the market, the Lumecube Drone Strobe will keep your drone visible no matter the make or model.
Drawbacks
- One user with the Phantom 4 Pro drone found that the recommended position for the Strobe (on the front of the top of the drone) was not ideal for their drone. While this is an irregular issue, it could be a drawback for you.
- The strobe has been found to be very sensitive to touch. While most of the time this is a positive, there will be times that you don’t want to use the strobe.
- At just under $80 usd, the Drone Strobe isn’t cheap. While it does its job exceptionally, it may be more beneficial to wait to find it at a discounted price.

FAQ
Unlike some other strobe lights made for drones that sit on the bottom or back of the top, interrupting cameras and the flight of the drone, the Anti-Collision strobe from Lumecube sits comfortably at the front of the top of your drone. However, you can place it in other locations if that works better for your purposes or drone.
The Lumecube strobe comes with its white light attached. However, it comes with two different light caps – red and green. At night, red is one of the most visible colours to the human eye, while green is more visible during all times of the day.
Made to be lightweight, powerful and robust, the Lumecube anti-collision strobe isn’t the smallest strobe light on the market, however it is plenty small and light enough to not interfere with your drone. The complete dimensions and weight of the Lumecube Strobe are below.
