Status: offline 		I have two of the stock lipo batteries for the Blade CX. It's an EFLB0900 7.4v 800mAh 2 cell.

The stock charger is a 'balance' charger, and gets the job done, if a little slow.

I dropped one on my Dynamite Vision Peak Ultra on the JST connector and hit it at .5 amp Lipo, just like I do my other 3 cell lipos for my Mini-LST and Blade CP.

Now I barely get anything out of this little 2-cell. It behaves very oddly. The Vision and Balance charger both show it charged, but I get the red light on the CX controller after about 60 seconds into flight. I can hover in ground effect for a while, but can never get any real power out of the pack.

Is it destroyed? Any way to 'reset' it?

The other cell I keep on the stock CX charger and it performs like a champ. I would kind of like to figure out a way to get faster charge times - unless the stock charger is as fast as it gets.
