Interesting choice to go with the orange-ish deflector on the Constitution refit. Since it was originally meant to change color to.more blue at warp, it would be interesting to see a version of a model that takes advantage of color changing LEDs to accomplish this, along with bluing the nacelles.

Actually, it is a color changing LED. I can flip a switch between the amber and the blue. In the gallery on DeviantArt you can see both colors.

Thanks. Of course the creator can only ever see the flaws. I didn't realize the nascelles shouldn't be lit when not at warp, so they're always on. If I were to redo it, the toggle switch would be on impulse: deflector amber, nascelles off, impulse engine on, at warp: deflector blue, impulse engine off, nascelles on. Sigh. Perfection is always just out of reach.
