Status: offline 		Is there a way to charge a 5000mah 4s lipo with a super brain 977 pro? I have a parallel and series connector if I would need to use those. I don't want to drop big bucks on a different charger.

I wonder if I could connect channel A and B together using a series connector and charge each channel as 2s. I would probably have to stop the charge on both channels together, which would mean just unplugging it.

If there isn't a way to charge 4s on it, is there a way I could sell it back to the company? It is practically new.
