Battery Charging

E-fl ite ® 1-Cell 3.7V Rate 0.3A DC Li-Po Charger
(EFLC1000) Instructions:
1. Charge only batteries that are cool to the touch and
are not damaged. Look at the battery to make sure
it is not damaged e.g., swollen, bent, broken or
punctured.
2. Remove the cover on the bottom of the charger and
install four of the included AA batteries, noting proper
polarity. Replace the cover after the AA batteries are
installed.
3. Slide the battery into the slot on the charger. The end
cap of the battery is specifi cally designed to allow
the battery to fi t
into the slot one
way (usually with
the label on the
battery facing
outward) to
prevent reverse
polarity connec-
tion. However,
check for proper
alignment and
polarity before
proceeding to the
next step.

First Flight Preparation

❏ Remove and inspect contents
❏ Begin charging the fl ight battery
❏ Install four AA batteries in the transmitter
❏ Install the fl ight battery in the helicopter (once it
has been fully charged)
❏ Test the controls and motors
❏ Familiarize yourself with the controls
❏ Find a suitable area for fl ying
4. Gently press the battery and its connector into the
charge jack/connector located at the bottom of the
slot in the charger.
5. When you make the connection successfully, the LED
on the charger turns solid red, indicating charging
has begun.
6. Charging a fully discharged (not over-discharged)
150mAh battery takes approximately 20–30
minutes. As the battery nears full charge, the LED
begins to blink.
7. When the battery is fully charged, the LED blinks
approximately every 20 seconds or goes out entirely.
If the LED stays on when the battery is removed,
the AA batteries in the charger are low.
8. Always remove the battery from the charger immedi-
ately upon completion of charging.
NOTICE: Only use the included charger. For DC charger
operation (AA batteries): only use alkaline AA batteries
to power the charger. Do not use rechargable AA bat-
teries.
WARNING: For AC operation, only use an
E-fl ite 6V power supply with this charger.
DO NOT use a 12V power supply or property damage
and injury could occur.
