what do i need to charge my life pack?
Hey guys, I picked up a used dx7 in the forums here, the guy didnt send me any cables or anything along with the dx7, and now i have no f-n clue how to charge this thing.
what cable or adapter do i need? or what do i need to do to charge it? i have an icharger 106b and this voltzlipo 3s 2100 mah 9.9v battery. heres pics of the batteries https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/...2010.28.48.jpg https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/...2010.29.11.jpg https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/...2010.29.21.jpg the battery is low, and now i have no way to use my dx7 as i cant seem to figure out how to charge it, and the guy i purchased it from has long since stopped replying to pms apparently. any help is greatly appreciated! edit: hooking it up with the balance plug to the icharger 106b with life settings, trying to start charging gives me an error " low voltage " checked with meter at the discharge plug says 9.87 volts. icharger says the cells are 3.29 across the board, with the third cell jumping between 3.28-3.29. why can i not charge this? what the heck am i doing wrong. my dominator v2's will be here in 2 days and if i cant fly because of this battery i will flip my crap lol Last edited by Atraperegrinus; 12-17-2014 at 11:49 AM.. |

Am i suppose to have a main lead with banana plugs to charge? or can i plug it directly into the balance port on the side of the 106b like i am.
I have no idea at this point, i assume i need the main lead, so i ordered one. we will see i guess. |

I charge my Tx packs using main lead that has servo male end on it and remove the box cover off the end exposing the 2 prongs plug in maitaining red-red and balck to black and charge with no balancing, if it has a balance connector then balance charge. Use a lower setting than for a mainpack. I usually charge the Tx packs at less than 1C, it just depends on the pack.
