Thank you both for the assistance. I had the usb charging cable upside down and because it's a slightly different shape than the charging port for the controller I just assumed it wouldn't work. I flipped it upside down and it now sees to be charging. I've got two lights blinking ayway. So it seems to be working. I did download the the user manual and read it cover to cover, so thank you for that. BTW I did fly it successfully before charging and was thrilled with the performance. Thanks againl,
Zuellflier.
