I am trying to go from a 4 cell to a 5 NiMh cell flight pack.
The 5 cell pack is fully charged, but according to the book, is showing a "brown-out" condition on the receiverslow blinking. The RX is an AR6200. I don't get the condition on the 4 cell nicad pack.
What's up with this?

You may find that some nimh batteries have high internal resistance, which causes voltage drop when you draw current from them. What size and type of nimh are you using, and what sort of servos? Digital servos can have higher current draw than analogs. NiCd batteries have typically lower internal impedance, you may have to switch to a different nimh pack.

When is it blinking?

If you turn off the reciever and back on, without turning off the transmitter, you get the blinking lights.

That was it. It had me scared, since none of the "park flyer" rx had the problemI was doing a set up, and had it on and off a couple of times...
fixed the problem. Thanks, guys. I appreciate it.

Yup, its just telling you that there was a power failure, it's not smart enough to know it was you doing it with a switch.
