Blade 130x battery ??

[SamS]

What type of battery/ battery connector will the 130x use, is it the standard JST connector ?


Thanks

I checked this out when I was at zone because I wanted to know.

The one I saw had a 3 pin JST connector, with only the outer two pins used.

Ill probably just convert everything to micro deans when i get mine though.

[SamS]

Oh right, so you wouldn't be using the battery that comes with the kit then ?

I want to use the standard red JST connectors, so I suppose I'll buy some batteries that already use JST connectors and just put JST's on the heli

[SamS]

Yeah i know that CPN, its just the odd connectors i'm curious about, may convert to JST

[Delarado]

I think its JST? The female on the heli looked the same as an MCPX connector but 3 pin not two.

Ill cut the stock connectors off and solder on micro deans when i get mine

Jst ??

pretty sure it was these.

Micro JST 2.0 PH 3-Pin Connector w/. Wire x 10 Sets | eBay

Ahhh okayy.

Don't see them very often, i wonder why they decided to use them ... Lightweight ??

So how are you going to go about putting micro deans on the female plug ??

I will take some complete photos of the 130 tonight and post

[Delarado]

cut the plug off and re-solder micro deans!

[SamS]

Yeah but the current plug on the 130x has three wires doesnt it, how will you put a plug on the battery as that has 3 wires ??

[Delarado]

No its a 3 pin but the centre pin was vacant if i remember correctly, there wasnt even a pin in the centre, it had been removed.

Is that the same for the battery ??

[Delarado]

Same as UMC beast. It's charging/balancing plug in one.
