Battery question:
Habu stock 4S e-flite battery is consistently cycling with two cells. One is trying to balance from 4.19 all the way down to 0.0V. It just keeps going round. The second cell isn't quite as bad. It cycles from 4.17 to 3.89.
Been charging for almost two hours now.
Any thoughts? Time to contact Horizon?

I'm going to guess that maybe there's a problem with the balance leads on those two cells either at the connector or at the cell. Even if that isn't it, it's time to call Horizon because it aint right.  |

I think 19k is right. Especially check the leads on the one going to 0.0volts. That's not a real reading.

Cool. I've placed her aside for now. I'm thinking I may just place it in a lipo bag for now. Emailed Horizon and just waiting for a response.
Thanks boys.
