G7 Fly LCD problems

[WuBuBu]

Alright i just got my G7 Fly after waiting/saving for 9 months, and I was so excited to finally play with it. So i charged it for the required 4 hour initial charge, and somethings wrong. I turn the gun on and the indiglo comes on, but there isnt a readout, no words, no battery display, nothing. The colored light at the top of the back of the handle displays a slowly blinking red light, which i beleive means its live. Whenever i turn it on it goes to this setting. Also i can see the red of the lazer eyes and whenever i press the bottom button the gun will vibrate, clearly some things work, and some things dont. PLEASE give me some advice, and would getting a Tadao Board fix the problem?

was your marker in the on position while charging?
it has to be on for the battery to charge.

If you did properly charge it, and the display is blank, the lcd coulld have a bad connection. A blinking red light means the eyes are on, try holding down the trigger until the eyes turn off. Then you should be able to pull the trigger and hear the solenoid click. Pushing the bottom button activates the game timer built into the software, thats why it's vibrating.
