hi Group,

I recently bought my first RC airplane model "Syma remote control plabe
Sparrow-8109"
It cost about $13 from hobbytron..

They give a base for charging with the instrument.
As per the spec, the instructions says "insert the charger into the
power source on transmitter" And the green led turns on when the
charging begins.The led turns off when the battery is fully charged.

What i notice is a the led glows Red. I kept the battery for charging
for about 10 hours, but the red light remains glowing.

I connect the battery to the airplane and i expect the motor to turn
when i press some buttons on the remote control unit, but the motors on
the plane does not turn.

Could someone please tell mw whether the led"which glows red" is
suppsed to glow green when the bateery is charging ??

When a charged battery is connected to the airplane body, is the motors
supposed to rotate?

Thanks and Regards,
Sainath
