  • Help needed with charging lipo battery

    I am new to this and I have an overlander 3900 14.8v 4s 25c lipo battery and I would like to know the settings I should use on the fusion LX41B Pro charger.
    I know it is a 4cell but what do I charge it at as the charger ranges from 0.1A to 4.0A ? How long does the charge take to get up to max and will the charger stop charging when fully charged?

      What heli is this for? Surely not a Trex?

      Anyway, set it to lipo balance 3.9A 4 cell, should take about an hour depending on initial charge. I don't know that charger but most (if not all) lipo chargers will taper the charge rate down as the pack voltage nears peak.

          Ah, looking at the manual Robocow has posted, it will only give 1.8A on 4 cell. So at that rate, it could take over 2 hours.
          To be honest, it's not a good charger, there's no feedback on the pack state or cell state. OK for really small (cheap) packs but I wouldn't trust it on any of my lipos.
