I understand the Lipo Batteries need balancing so I purchased a Thunder Power THP-205V

I got all my stuff on a deal second hand. I was given 5 Batteries 2 Amex 2100mAh and three thunder power 2100mah ones. The Ampex Batteries have a Balance wire the thunder power do not. How the heck do I balance the ones without the wire?

Yes I am a nubee I have only hovered three times so far and did well from what I was told, and have crashed my SIM several Hundred times:lol: I came from the RC Gas Boat world but this is a completely new game to me.

Can someone enlighten the newbee.

Unfortunately if there is no balance connector it can't be balanced... unless you solder on in yourself, but I wouldn't bother with that.

If you buy your next battery, get one with a balancer connector. :wink:

And if you have TP 2100s that do not have balance connectors, they are several generations old and may be fairly low amp output.
