Firstly, read the instructions. You must sync the controller to the helicopter every time you turn off both controller and helicopter at the same time. Basically, you have to sync every time you fly.

The following is from the experience I had with the same helicopter the first day I opened the box that may also be a solution to your problem. I read the manual and sync'd the helicopter and controller as instructed. The LED in the helicopter stopped flashing signifying that sync has been completed. I increased the throttle and nothing happened. I repeated the sync and still nothing. I was getting increasingly frustrated as I do not like being stumped. I had planned on returning the helicopter the next day but made one last attempt to fly it. I repeated the exact same sync procedure I had done many times prior and this time it worked. I stopped and looked around and noticed that, because it was later in the night, I only had a hallway light on and not my kitchen and living room lights.

Moral of the story, check your lighting. I was using a granite counter top directly under bright florescent lights bars. I am guessing this interfered with the IR controller therefor functionality of the helicopter.

I suggest trying everything again under indirect light and a non reflective surface if possible. Good luck and I hope you get it working because it is a blast.
