Protecting your Flight Battery
The circuit board in the helicopter includes a protection circuit for your flight battery that ensures a proper
discharge to within a safe limit for the battery. Once you realize that power is dropping off in flight, please land
the helicopter.
The protection is activated when the Red LED on the circuit board starts flashing.
NOTICE: Flying the helicopter frequently with flashing Red LED will reduce the lifetime of your flight battery or
even damage it.
