Re: New Featherweight Build
Cheers guys,
My plan today was to assemble the wiring correctly and hope that stopped most of the problems, most notably the smoking speedo, but the snow has prevented me for getting the bits I would need to do the wiring properly. Hopefully tomorrow I can get the bits and keep you posted on its progress.
Re: New Featherweight Build
that sounds like a failsafe issue. If you are using the BR6000 set your stick to neutral position and re bind the rx. should stop it now.
Re: New Featherweight Build
Cheers for the ideas guys, I tried to give them a try today and the battery is refusing to charge, repeatedly telling me that there is a connection break instead. Very annoying.
I have connected the charge lead and terminals to the charger and it still says this. Am I doing something wrong or is there something up with the equipment?
Re: New Featherweight Build
what charger are you using and the battery ????
maybe a connection between the cells within the pack has come loose
Re: New Featherweight Build
The battery is the Zippy 2200 and the charger an iMax G6
Re: New Featherweight Build
Battery type is a LiPo sorry I don't think I specified that earlier. Still haven't been able to solve this problem, thinking possibly its a case of trying out a new battery. This was the first time i've had to charge them though so don't think it should be dead.

It could be that one of the balancing wires inside the LiPo pack has come loose. This problem is a known issue with some brands of LiPo. It will charge without balancing probably but I don't recommend that. Best thing is to measure the balancing wires and see if there is a loose connection and repair it, or use another LiPo pack.
