Status: offline 		Can someone please help me get the story straight on using Common Sense V2 packs with the Astro Blinky?
I've been searching for at least a half-hour without success.

LOL, I'm about ready to just say "screw it!" and go plug them together, see what happens.

I've gathered so far that the V2's balance plugs have been reconfigured to more-closely match other brands.
Meanwhile, Astro-Blinky's instruction manual says that it will accept packs with "standard conenctors".
Listed in the instructions are the brands Apogee, Vampower, 2Dog RC, and E-power. I can't seem to find
any confirmation that CSRC V2 packs are wired the same as these brands. If only I could make that link...

So.... Does anyone know if I can I use my Astro Blinky with the CSRC V2 packs, or do i need an adapter?

Thanks in advance.

We changed our "V2" packs to make them much more plug and play with what is out on the market today..
