hey guys

i just built a foamy and powered it with an axi 2208/34.
It draws max. 10Amps
I bought a thunder power 2S (7.4V) 1320 mAh battery with a ~17 Amp continous
I also previously had a 350 mAh 3S (11.1V) battery.
i don't know its discharge rate. i have already used it on the plane and it seemed to get slightly warm after a flight.

IS IT DANGEROUS TO KEEP ON USING IT

If you mean that you don't know the discharge rate of the 11.1v 350mah pack, then even drawing the same 10 amps (which it won't anyway cos it's higher voltage will draw even more amps)
Would mean that it would have to have at least around a 30C discharge rating, which is extremely highly unlikely, and most probably only have something in the region of 10 - 12 C which would only be able to handle 3.5 - 3.8 amps.

My advice: don't use it in that plane, chances are you will knacker the battery from over discharge currents.

However, if lipos are being discharged at a greater rate that they were intended to, then they would usually get hot, not just a little warm.

A bit of a dilemma ?
