Why does my Spektrum receiver keep flashing LEDs?
The intent was that you would look at the LED before you launch to notice that it was solid, then look at it again when it came back. If it was flashing you knew you had some kind of power supply fault. The side effect is that the LED will also flash under a few other conditions.
