OK, this is just about starting to make sense....

So as the battery measured 7.5v it must have been almost flat after a few minutes of use, hence the blue flashing LED on the ESC?

I was told to charge at 0.5a to preseve the battery. So could this be my problem, shall I increase the rate, or will this simply quicken the charge time?

Thanks yet again!
