Kenny, how or with what are you measuring the packs voltages ?

RE: Battery or charger problem!!!!!
 

I am checking the voltage of the packs with a VOM meter whcih should read the voltage of the pack or a little over if fully charged.

Kenny, Lets figure this one out, first, make sure the VOM is good, take it to a known voltage source and make sure it reads ok, try a known good battery. Hey, if you can, we can try MSN messenger and I will walk you through the troubleshooting.

:eek: Well a little egg on my face[:-] . I had a couple problems and that was what was confusing me. (1) My vom meter was on the fritz (2) the heli is new to me and the gears were meshed a little tight that put drag on the motor and would eat the battery up quickly and (3) the brushed on the motor were wear down and causeing it not to run right.


Well I think I got her under control.........Thanks...........Kenny:)
