First of all, not all planes are required to have lights, the rules on light aircraft is to have light when flying at night, dark/reduced light. On larger planes light are required and should be used.


Navigation lights. People tend to get this one almost correct. Green on the Right side and Red on Left side. There is also a white light that is placed on the tail of the plane. This is a steady white light that covers 140 degrees.

When standing in front of the aircraft, you shall see both green and red light. When on a side, only the light from that side. When behind or left/right behind you shall see only white. Never white with a red/green, because the white light indicate that the plane is flying in direction from you.


This can be done like this:

Taxi light should be on when taxing. White light that lights up the way in front. Popular 1 on each wing and/or light on the nose wheel.


Landing lights is white, much stronger than taxi light and most often placed on each wing. May also be placed on the nose wheel or main wheels.


Anti-collision (beacon light) lights is a red flashing light on top of the aircraft, or under to indicate that the engine is either running or starting. Use a blinker, 0.3 sec on duration and 0.7 sec off duration would do just fine.


Strobe light is a flashing blitz on each side of the wing flashing perpendicular to the aircrafts longitudinal axis (on the wing side). This is very useful for spotting other aircraft.
To make a perfect:
Button---->[Blinker (0.1 sec on 1.0 sec off)] + [] ] Both blinker to OR Gate ---> Lights


And that's all i think. There is more lights, like formation lights, tactical lights, so just try out my heli with correct light settings: https://steamproxy.net/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1547924413
