  • parallel charge boards?

    which make of parralel boards do you use?

    Do you trust cheap hk ones or do you spend considerably more on fused boards, or somwhere inbetween. Any experiences of failed soldering on cheap boards? Any links to your prefered choices.
    Any input greatly appreciated before I spend the hard earned.

    I have been using the cheapo HK boards on both EC5 and Deans for over 12 months with no prolems, apart from when I got the Red and Black coupled up wrongly. MY FAULT,
    Been there and done that, but never stop learning.
    Now too many Helis to mention?

      I also have been using the hk ones. Ec5&3's with no problems. I did open them up to check the quality if the soldering and all was good. The latest ec5 one I got did have a small bit of solder floating around inside. So always worth opening and double checking.

        I'm using the Revo MPA board. Little bit pricey but a chunky unit that seems well made! Only just started using it but seems to do well.

          It's worth checking everything you buy if it can mess other things up. Check for shorts between leads and then plug a battery into each position one at a time and make sure the charger sees the correct leads.
