I hope someone can help with a problem with my drone. I received my final kit last Sunday and now in the process of linking the rc control and the drone. However when I plug the battery to the drone there is a constant slow beeping, blue arm light is constantly on, red tail arm is constantly flashing slowly, and tail led is rotating flashing pattern of blue,red,and green. I followed the instructions but to no avail I cannot get the drone to go into calibration. The battery is fully charged. Please help. Thank you!

It sounds like you have not bound the drone to the transmitter yet. If that's the case there is a little button on the drone receiver that you need to press while the transmitter is on. They should then bind and the beeping should stop.

Thanks for the reply!
Unfortunately, the link on the post is to a pdf file for the manual for battery charger. Also I tried linking the transmitter and receiver. I inserted a screwdriver into the little hole in the receiver and pressed for 1 second. It flashed twice and the LED became constant red indicating it is linked. But it still is not working. When I plug in the battery to the drone is it supposed to make beeping noise from the 4 arms? When I turn on the main switch it still the same status when I first posted in the forum. Front arm blue light is on, rear arm light is flashing red, beeping coming from arms, tail LED is rotating blue, red, green. I wonder if I have a defective circuit board or receiver?

Thanks Mr T.
I have one last question to ask before calling c/s. I can hear the beeping noise coming from 3 of the 4 motors. The rear right motor is not beeping. I switched the motor cable to the rear left esc and vice versa. When I connect the battery the rear right motor still does not beep. Could it possible that all the LED flashing light is an indicator for a motor malfunction? I f so I will contact c/s in Japan to get replacement motor.

Just to let you know, I troubled shooted the problem done to a faulty motor assembly. The copper coil was severed in two locations causing a short. Calling customer service to get replacement. The drone with the faulty motor disconnected, the drone LED and beeping became normal like how the instructions were written and I was able to link and confirm three of the four motors work. Thank you all for your help!
