DIY Cheap Micro Drone LED Race Gates | Part 2 - LED Hoop

This is the second video in a DIY series about how to make portable micro drone (whoop) LED race gates for really cheap. These designs allow a lot of variation in shape, size, mounting style, and the types of LEDs used, from RGB and addressable LEDs to Christmas and fairy lights. This video explains how to make an LED hoop. These are all my own designs.
