Turn off Multi-function LED

Posted by The Sea Captian on October 22, 2014 at 1:01pm

Is there any way to turn off the large multi-function LED on the pixhawk?

I will not need the light as I will be relying on the piezo and a USB connection for info from the device.

The LED generates a significant amount of heat and since it will be operating for up to a month in a contained environment, I am trying to see about not having the light on at all.

Thanks

If you add the external USB/LED combo, it shuts off the internal LED. I know this is not the answer you were hoping for, just an alternative.
