Battery Charge Level LED Light FPZ - Filmore781 - 12-20-2018
Hello,
Probably a stupid question, but does the orange LED indicator light on the Freeplay Zero signal low battery? This is my first use on battery power. I want to avoid the batteries dying while playing, but also just double checking this light doesn't signal a different threshold before I charged them again.
Thank you

You are correct. The front LED is usually green. It will change when the battery is low.
If you are using the "default" Freeplay LCD driver, you would also get an icon. There is now a newer/faster/better LCD driver that's experimental. It works very well on the Freeplay CM3, but it's not as well tested on the Freeplay Zero. We're also looking at ways to add some on-screen notification to that.
