Solder my good man. Solder. I dunno why you got that connector. Not sure you can run your heli off the balance plug. Never seen that done and dont think I would advise it either. So cut the white plug off that connecter and then solder the JST to bare battery wires. Make sure you use something to cover your joints be it electrical tape or the best thing is shrink tube.

Not sure what that connector is for, but most people just replace the JST with a T connector or Deans Plug. Female Deans end goes on battery and male to ESC. Not sure if you are supposed to draw off the balance plug, since there is diodes on that circuit.

On that battery the white connector is for a balancer or for charging the battery. The other two wires a red and black one are used to supply the ESC (Electronic Speed Control) that then attaches to your motor. I use Deans connectors on those two wires and on the ESC wires.

Some chargers do charge the battery thru the two wires but I do not know how they do the conection. Hope this helps.

I charge all my lipos thru the JST 2 wire connections and use a Astro blinky balancer on the white blancing connector. I also have a Deans connector on the charger that I use to hook up directly to the larger lipos I have and still use the balancer on the other connector.

I do the same thing. Just find a good LiPo charger, set the amp rate and cell count, intsall Astro Blinky on balance connector and start charging. Very simple. If you run Thunder Power LiPo, you will need the adapter with smaller pin spacing for the Astro blinky though.
