that's the gun "testing" itself... give it a moment to turn on, it should eventually read "SAFE" on the LCD.

But if the board is fried then it won't say safe it will stay blank with the back light. So you could have a bad board.

just put an A4 board in it... that's ur best bet, and u get all the goodies that are in the A4 board that aren't in the fly board... (does debounce settings come w/ the a4 board?)

do i need to buy anything extra? just the board no conversion stuff right?

yeah... no conversion stuff, it drops right into the place of ur old LCD board... oh! and don't waste the money on the LCD screen... the 1 on ur LCD board works fine on the A4 board.

You could always do some work with your dremel to make the board fit.
