I just checked my charger and it doesn't go up to 5.3a the max is 5.0a. on the charger for 'Lipo Charging' it reads - 5.0a (cant go higher) then says 7.4v (2s) or I can change it to read 3.7v (1s) just seen that on 'balance charging' the lowest I can go is 7.4v (2s) it wont give me a 1s option

ok cool - so do I charge it at 2C for balanced charging? cheers

I think I understand now lol - the 30C is the discharge rate. I think this is a 2 cell battery (7.4v) so I think I have to have it set to 2c for charging

HI all Hoping someone can help me out here. I recently got back into RC cars and have picked up a HPI RS4 Sport 3 flux. I purchased a lipo battery and lipo charger for it but have no idea how to charge it The battery I have is this one: https://www.hpiracing.co.uk/piw.php?partNo=101942 Can someone check these charging settings are correct: Set charger to Lipo 7.4v - balance charge - plug in the small white connector (only fits in one port on the charger), and plug the other 2 black and red wires up On the charger I have to have the amps set to 5.3a as its a 5300mah lipo - is that correct? But the cells - is this battery a 2c, 3c, 4c or 5c etc? I am unsure on that part what setting do I need for this bit? The battery says 30C tho? Any help much appreciated!
