My CF2 flew as soon as I had assembled it, but it ran out of batteries after a minute or two. I put it on a charger, turned on. It does not charge.

When I unplug it, the lights dim out over a few seconds and it tries to reboot.

When it is on the charger, the M1 light flashes red, M2 is steady blue. M3 flashes so dimly at first that I can barely see it. It eventually grows to a normal brightness flash, but it never speeds up, or has a longer duty cycle, even over hours.

I've had the CF2 charging, plugged into different computers, for about two days now. It dies rapidly whenever I unplug it.

Hi,

This does not sounds good. Have you tried to switch the copter on and off while connected to the charger? the M3 blue LED should then blink during charging. Does the battery and/or the board becomes warmer when you charge?

I had my LED numbers off. I've updated them.Yes, I've tried turning the board off and then on again while on the USB cable. I've never updated the firmware - this is happing after the first flight.

Sorry for the late answer. This looks like a case of hardware problem. Can you please drop us a mail at contact@bitcraze.io and we will fix a replacement.

May be your battery is over discharger, it cause your battery broken; or your charger poor contact.
