• After you make the connection successfully, the LED light on the
charger will turn solid red, indicating that charging has begun.
• It will take approximately 30–40 minutes to charge a fully discharged
(not over-discharged) battery. As the battery nears full charge, the LED
light will begin to blink. When the battery is fully charged the LED light
will blink approximately every 20 seconds or will go out entirely.
Note: The Li-Po battery included with your P-51D Mustang will arrive
partially charged. For this reason the initial charge may only take
15–20 minutes.
Note: You can expect to charge the Li-Po flight battery approximately
15–20 times before it will be necessary to replace the AA
batteries in the charger. Replacing the included batteries with
alkaline batteries will result in more charge cycles than with the
included batteries.
Note: If LED remains on for longer than 40 minutes while charging and/or
5 seconds after removing the Li-Po flight battery, please replace the
AA batteries in the charger.
Installing the Flight Battery
Once the Li-Po battery has been fully charged, it’s ready to be installed in the
airplane.
Install the battery in the airplane by placing it into the slot on the bottom of
the fuselage with the plug facing toward the front of the airplane.
Note: If you are using E-flite mCX batteries or other batteries without
hook and loop tape, we have included extra hook and loop tape
pieces to allow you to use these batteries.
