E-Flite Battery Lead Question
I own a Hobbico Field Charger. I was wondering if there are any connectors made to connect it to a E-flite Lithium Polymer Battery for Foamy airplanes to it. And where I could buy one.

You can, but I think that charger may be too hot to charge those little 1S lipos. I had tried it with the one I have, an A680, but it wouldn't see the battery. Mine needs to see the balance leads in order to know what pack is being charged. I guess it does that to prevent lipo fires.
There is a JST to that small connection adapter from Eflite, It is for the mCPX, and I think they make another one that fits the smaller ones for the UM planes and mC helis. I did a search on Horizon, but cant seem to find them.

Its what I was thinking of. Wouldnt work with the charger Ihave though, it needs the balance connection to detect the number of cells unless Isetup a special Lipo setting under the manual settings. Too lazy and the chargers I have for the UM packs work just fine for my needs.
