I know about that thread, that's how I found out about the green light.
Unfortunately, that was during a malfunction of the RC, so there's no way to duplicate it through the same method.

Yeah, I wonder if there are actually four LEDs in there (one blue, one red, one green, and one something else, maybe yellow), because there are five wires to the LED module. That should be four colors and a common ground.

If it's falling apart it's a mechanical problem. If it's spewing smoke it's a electrical problem.
If it's rampaging around destroying things it's a programming problem.
