Hi,
I just picked up a couple of these batteries and they have a balance connector (so far so good) and two futaba type connectors. My question is are these two connectors wired to the two individual cells and if so how are people using these? I mean I need one connector at 7.4 v to hook into my Align Trex 600 bec so should I parallel the leads from the battery into one connector for my bec?

Well I've got my answer. I called FP and they told me that both futaba connectors come from the same point in the battery and are wired to both cells. The reason there are two of them is so one can be used as a charge connector and the other can go to the bec (with a switch of course as you would not want the charge to go into the bec). FP was very helpful. Seems like a good company.
