Hi,

What parameters values should I set to charge the elev-8 lipo batteries with the TURNIGY ACCUCELL-6 ?

Thanks.

    Talaat I don't have that battery but if I did I would set the charger mode - to LiPo Balance, voltage - 11.1V, charge current - 3.3A. That maybe a little slow for some people but my batteries seem to hold up well when the charge current is set to match the battery capacity.
    Maybe someone will jump in with a better thought.

    EDIT: Always be careful when charging LiPo's - never leave them charging unattended!
