What Do Red and Green Lights Mean on a Drone?
Red and green drone lights are essential for orientation and navigation, especially in low light conditions.
-
Red Light (Port Side Left): Mounted on the left side of the drone, a red light helps you instantly determine the front left position when the drone is in flight.
-
Green Light (Starboard Side Right): A green light typically marks the right side of the drone.
-
White Light (Rear or Bottom): Often used to indicate the back or underside, helping with positional awareness during takeoff or landing.
Together, these colors help drone pilots maintain line of sight control, recognize heading direction, and avoid collisions, particularly when operating in groups or close to other aircraft.

FAA Part 107 requires an anti‑collision light visible for at least 3 statute miles at night. Colored navigation lights help show orientation but are supplemental.
They follow standard aircraft lighting rules, red on left and green on right, to indicate drone orientation.
These LEDs use minimal power. While they will draw some energy, any impact on flight duration is minor compared to typical flight activity.
Yes. Most models are surface or adhesive mountable with ultra-low weight for seamless integration.
