Ast you need to invest in a lipo regulator, that would have protected your battery. |

With all due respect, that's about the dumbest thing you could do. Those batteries are knackered. _________________ RCDisco/X Ray, Sirio, Weston UK Fuels, TIR |

i never said it was my advice, it was just something i have heard, maybe instead of dumbest it would have been nicer to say ill advised. |

Yeah i have heard the same thing but for the sake of £15 i think i just get some new ones ,
I have a regulator on them so they can be used as the reciver pack in the nt1!!! if i hadnt of left them pluged in for 2 or 3 days after sunday they would have been fine  _________________ Nt1 |
