Default RE: How I recovered a completely dead LIPO!!!

I can build an entire plane, from the ground up, starting from absolutely nothing, for less than $100. Ain't gonna be fancy but it's gonna fly as well as anything out there, I can tell you.
I'll bet. The discussion wasn't about building a cheap airplane. Do try to keep up. The point I'm making is you shouldn't risk more than you can afford to lose in this hobby. 'Recovering' a dead Lipo is potentially dangerous, and you'll still have a battery that's iffy at best. Same with old Nicads. If they get to be 5-6 years old, I pitch 'em. Not a question of if, but when.
Same with the cost of a plane or heli. I don't put anything in the air that I can't afford to lose. Saw one club member total 3 IMAC planes in a month. He hasn't been flying since.

Don't bother replying/arguing; I very rarely come around this site anymore.
Darn! Probably 'cruising' Justin Bieber fansites. Good riddance.
