the "ABC" select switch is for the "channel" select. I've read somewhere that one of the channels is a "dummy" channel and in reality there's only two working channels, even with the ones that have a three channel switch. 

I still say it's needing to turn off the heli, try again. Turn off the remote, try again. You have to go power full up twice, also- not just power up.

Next, check the angle of the reciever to make sure it's not being blocked by the stabilizer bars (the diagonal ones) or the frame.

Then, crack open the remote as suggested, and look for loose wires or missing parts. (and etc)

If it doesn't work, buy annother at aldi's, try both with the new remote- one in A, one in B- and see if you can get them to work. If it still doesn't work, take it back and keep the other. If it does work, don't take them, back, cause you'll end up just going out to buy annother later on anyway.

My phantom takes easilly 3-4 tries sometime to get going, and I constantly have to swap on/off on the remote and the heli. Keep trying...

USB plug glowing bright.

Unplugged Charger from chopper.

Chopper turned on, then remote turned on with switch on remote set to "A" position. Nothing.

Repeated this for position "B" and "C". Nothing.

On to reversing the order.

Remote turned on (pos "A"), then power up Chopper.

Repeated with remote at Pos "B" and "C" then chopper on.

Non of this worked. Chopper sat there with LEDs flashing but NO blades spinning.

I will try again later, but for now it stays DEAD. 

Thanks...
