Arduino + Neopixel/WS2812B LED strip + RC throttle channel input (PWM) => after burner effect for EDF RC jets.

This has been tested on a Arduino Pro mini, but it should work with most arduinos Very simple hardware:

• +5V power for the Arduino and the NeoPixel LED strip.
• PWM signal (coming from a RC receiver, the throttle channel usually) connected to the pin 5 (PWM_PIN) of the arduino.
• Data (ouput) from pin 6 (PIN) of the arduino to the data input of the led strip.

Note: to program an Arduino Pro mini you need an USB-Serial adapter. Or you can use an Arduino nano, with integrated USB connection.
