Sportsman Light Kits

The aluminum wing of the Sportsman (and Glastar) has been begging for a Duckworks light for a long time - now we have some.

There were some challenges due to the small area in the leading edge, but thanks to the inputs of several builders we were able to finalize on a great solution. Installation is straight forward and results in a great looking, lightweight, adjustable Landing Light, with great flexibility in available lamps.

We have another new low power draw, very high output LED Lamp, while our base installation comes with a 55W Halogen lamp - upgradeable to 100W Halogen, 50W HID.

Light Bulb and Kit Options

LED Leading Edge Light Kits

Duckworks currently offers ONE Light Emitting Diode (LED) Kit for the Sportsman airfoil/wing. The benefits to the LEDs are very bright light output, amazingly low power draw, and very long life.

NOTE - Because the LED lights draw less than 2 Amps when on steady, there is no reason to scrimp on lighting. Duckworks has always prided itself on providing great products at reasonable prices - the low power draw of the new LED lights now allow even an aircraft with a 20 Amp alternator to run 2 lights!
