The standard Astro>Thunder Power adapter will work up to 5s. Recent FlightPower packs use ThunderPower compatible connectors.
No adapter is made for a blinky to Thunder power over 5s, due to the dual connector used on TP with 6 and above.

You can make your own adapter, and then hook it up VERY carefully EVERY time. Once wrong, and your blinky and/or battery is toast. That's why they don't make them commercially...
Or, get a different balancer.
Since you have FP 4900 6S, consider a "fast charge" rig, such as a TP1010+210. Or one of the FP setups with the "charge through" V balancer. These can safely charge the bat in 30 min.
