Why is the voltage so low?

dont now it was fine in the heli did 5 mins stoped and then went to charge and would not work

Probably a battery protection issue with your charger or battery. Your voltage might be too low to charge.. cells are probably damaged due to low voltage. Did you charge it before you used it for the first time? if it's an align battery, it's probably done forever..
