Anyway the lipos are lasting a lot longer now you should get atleast 300 charges out of them (early ones you were lucky to get 100!!) and the small connector your describing is the balance lead, which enables all the cells to be charged at the same rate and to exactly the same voltage. One thing i will say tho is get the best batteries you can afford, i run Kong Power in my 6s heli and they are awesome, and have over 250 charges on one of them and its still as powerful as ever. One thing i have noticed about flightpower/trackpower, is the seem to be peaky, ie give out more power at the start of the useage and peter off, where as the Kongs i use are very consistant through out the charge.
Hello Kev I've not quite gone to the dark side dont worry....

I maybe be dreaming but I'm imagining the lad can come along to meetings with me at Pendle and race that when he fancies, as well as playing at home with it. Hoping thats easier than another nitro vehicle as it should be a switch on and through it down job for him..(sure it wont be that easy)

Need to find a good source for these bloody expensive batteries now, £250 for a nitro motor no problem, more than 20sheets for a battery come on now lol
