Default Failsafe not working

Hi, I have the Ofna Micro failsafe, and it isn't working. When I hook it up to the throttle servo, it just blinks really weird and the throtlle servo twitches. Then it is not working at all. Whats wrong?

Did you set it up yet?? You have to show the failsafe where the "fail" point is. Read your instructions. If that doesn't cure the problem then I'd say it's bad. Mine setup pretty easy.

check your batteries....some failsafes don't work well at 4.8v unless they are fully charged...try using fresh alkalines

Well i fooled around with the connection, and found it does work, but the light just stays red. I don't have the steering servo yet, could this be causing the red light?
