When
the
battery
is
connected
to
the
charge
lead
securely
and
with
the
proper
polarity
the
CHG
(charge)
LED
indicator
on
the
charger
will
glow
solid
yellow.
The
battery
will
be
charging
anytime
the
LED
indicator
is
glowing
solid
yellow
and
whether
or
not
the
transmitter
is
powered
on.
It
will
take
approximately
40
‐
60
minutes
to
charge
a
fully
discharged
(not
over
‐
discharged)
battery.
And
when
the
battery
is
fully
charged
the
LED
indicator
will
stop
glowing
yellow
entirely.
When
the
LED
indicator
is
no
longer
glowing
you
can
remove
the
battery
from
the
charger
as
it
is
now
fully
charged
and
ready
for
use.
NOTE:
The
LiPo
battery
included
with
your
model
will
arrive
partially
charged.
For
this
reason
the
initial
charge
may
only
take
approximately
20
‐
30
minutes.
NOTE:
It’s
safer
and
better
for
the
longevity
of
the
battery
to
store
it
only
partially
charged
for
any
length
of
time.
Storing
the
battery
at
approximately
50%
charged
(which
is
approximately
3.85V
per
cell)
is
typically
best,
however,
it
will
take
some
careful
management
of
the
charge
time
and
the
use
of
a
volt
meter
to
achieve
this
voltage.
If
you
have
the
equipment
and
skills
to
achieve
the
50%
charge
level
for
storage
it
is
recommended.
If
not,
simply
be
sure
to
not
store
the
battery
fully
charged
whenever
possible.
In
fact,
as
long
as
the
battery
will
be
stored
at
approximately
room
temperature
and
for
no
more
than
a
few
weeks
before
the
next
use,
it
may
be
best
to
store
the
battery
in
the
discharged
state
after
the
last
flight
(as
long
as
the
battery
was
not
over
‐
discharged
on
the
last
flight).
NOTE:
You
must
ALWAYS
turn
the
transmitter
on
first,
BEFORE
installing/connecting
the
LiPo
flight
battery.
And
before
proceeding
with
the
following
steps,
please
be
sure
the
transmitter
is
powered
on.
After
the
LiPo
battery
has
been
fully
charged
it’s
ready
to
be
installed
in
the
airplane.
However,
the
first
step
before
installing
the
battery
is
to
connect
it
to
the
3
‐
in
‐
1
control
unit.
ALSO,
YOU
MUST
BE
CAREFUL
TO
ENSURE
PROPER
POLARITY
BEFORE
CONNECTING
THE
BATTERY
TO
THE
3
‐
IN
‐
1
CONTROL
UNIT
CONNECTOR.
By
orienting/aligning
the
small
red
circle
marking
on
the
housing
of
the
battery
with
the
small
red
circle
marking
on
the
connector
for
the
3
‐
in
‐
1
control
unit
you’ll
be
able
to
make
the
connection
with
the
correct
polarity.
