Made a new rear light bar with brakes, reverse lights and strobes

This shows a bit about how it works. Doesn't show the blue/amber mode though:

Long, drawn-out details below:

This video shows the rear lightbar with strobe, brake light and reverse light functions. It is meant to connect on an RC vehicle in between the receiver and ESC. The ESC needs to be the instant reversing kind, not the double-pump reverse version.
When the lightbar powers up, you see a blue light sweep back and forth. During this time, the controller is taking note of the throttle signal as it will be at the zero throttle position and therefore in the area when the brake lights should be lit. Once the blue sweep is over, the brake lights are on. Going forward causes the brake lights to dim but not go out entirely. This is to simulate running lights. Moving the throttle to make the vehicle travel in reverse, causes the reverse lights to come on. The whole time, the strobe lights are running. By default, the strobes are amber. Cut the yellow loop on the controller enables the strobe to be amber on one side and blue on the other. Note that if the reverse lights come on when driving forward, just cut the white wire loop on the controller to set that right.

Here it is installed on my friend Shane's truck:
