Team Jeopardy: Endeavour

Awesome

[SamO]

Quick update, ordered the battery and motors tonight for mini Endeavour. Forgot to add the mounting screws for the motors which is kind of annoying because it means I have to pay more P&P .

Will order the rest soon!

[Bacon Wizard]

Surely, it being a Sunday night, nobody will have processed the order yet, or packaged anything. You aught to be able to leave a message asking to combine the shipment and therefore postage?

[SamO]

Just done that now. However it does say on the order recite that nothing can be added afte the order has been placed.
Ohhh well, see what happens tomorrow.

[Bacon Wizard]

That's harsh

[Eventorizon]

Cancel it asap! I emailed Banebots after I missed off my wheels and they cancelled the order so I could do it again even though they were in the process of boxing my parts when they got the email
Technobots should do the same if you just cancel it.

[SamO]

Problem solved! Bought a pack of 12 from eBay for £1.50, the same price as 6 from Technobots.
Man, I love eBay !

[SamO]

Okay, so all the stuff we have ordered arrived today

Quick Question though, how do I charge this using a Turnigy accucell 6:



It only has one plug, and most lipo's I know have two, one for balancing and one for power. I've done some research and it looks like I need to make a splitter which consist of 2 banana plugs that takes the red and black wire for the power and a another lead that goes of into the balancer, like this:


Any help?

yes, if you only have a charger with 2 wires then you will need to connect to the red and black wires only as they are 7.4v.

red to white is 3.7v
black to white is 3.7v

Most chargers have a JST-XH balance connector that should charge this pack directly. But the pack has what I believe is a JST-PH connector. So you need an adapter... Something like this.
