Default RE: E-FLIGHT BLADE CP

I had the rear motor bushing issue where it came out after 2 flights, very much a pain un-screwing it pushing it back in etc, I ordered a new one and still flew it while I waited. I noticed the blade was getting more out of trim with the gain, and very unstable, i was thinking I had somehow got worse flying it as time went on...(like my golf! ), when I replace the motor today - WOW all is back to normal! It just shows how easily those motors wear out and how much effect a poor motor has on stability. - I may have cooked it using the 1800 Lipols? It did have the heat sinks on....

That was the good news.. I have noticed now that when I plug in I get a flashing Red light (4) and then Flashing Green and then Steady Green and ready to go... It appears to be OK in flight but not sure what the Red light then Green means? Anyone seen this? This is New.

I have the Acro upgrade with 3sp lipols (1200)s . PS. I am only getting about 9 mins on my Lipols, I use them on my fixed wing (brush-less setup) and I get 18 min+ What are other people getting?

3 Weeks in and loving this heli.

So in summary....

Anyone know what the Red / Green Light is?
What flight times are you getting on 3sp lipols?

Thanks.
