Try again as per pairing instructions.
Unable to pair Flite Controllers to multiple boards
Do not attempt to pair multiple Flite Controllers to multiple Fliteboards simultaneously.

Reduced run time
The battery management system (BMS) balances and optimises the battery during each charge cycle.
Leave the charging magnet on Flitecell for 24 – 48 hours after between charges to allow the BMS to optimise Flitecell.
