Help. I think my plane is broken

I just finished building my FT Freighter EP airplane and when I try to get it connected with the controller the leds blink but the motor will not work no matter what I try. Anyone know what to do?

If you haven't already, try these steps from the Micro Freighter manual:
1. Linking the transmitter to the aircraft for the first time.
a. Install a charged battery into the bottom of the plane.
b. Close the battery door.
c. Turn on the airplane first. The LED will flash.
d. Turn on the Transmitter next. The LED’s on the transmitter and the plane will flash.
e. Move the throttle from low to high and then back down to low. The LED’s will glow steady.
f. Turn off the airplane and then the transmitter.
g. The transmitter will remember this link for future operation.

I have tried this and it appears to be connected because as soon as the throttle reaches max the led glowed but after a few seconds will start to blink slowly. However the motor will not start at all.
