So I was flying today and all of the sudden my Trex 450 didn't feel right and started losing power, so I landed right away. I put it on my Cellpro when I got home and figured out that I must not have charged that pack like I thought I had. It charged okay, and I put 1950 back into the battery. Is this battery forever tainted? Does it have a chance at a normal life after this screw up? Thanks- Dain

What was the voltage when you plugged it in?

I came from many years of electric off road racing with nicads and NiMH so when I got my heli and started to hover, I would run my packs until the speed control would cut out, forcing me to land. I still have two of my three original packs and continue run ok. I'm a little nicer to them now.

It will probably have done some damage to the pack, but only thing you can do it keep flying it.

The first couple of cycles I would keep a close eye on it though.
