Hi there,
To me this is normal as the controller tries permanently to adjust the pitch
and lights just indicate the way it moves. At least it's how our's works!
You can also refer to the user's guide or contact your local Airmaster rep.

Objet: Re: Europa-List: Airmaster AC200 Feather light on during flight
Hi Gordon,
If the prop is operating within its optimum range than the feather green
light should definitely not be flickering on.
The other flickering lights indicate which way the propeller is adjusting
to fine the best pitch to optimize the performance. Green light is the prop
is going to a finer pitch and the yellow light means it is trying to find a
coarser pitch.
Martin at Airmaster will be able to help. Contact him via the Airmaster web
site.
Maybe a connection problem. Does the RPM change with the feather light on?
If not then it is an indication problem.
Cheers,
Tim
