hi guys
bit of a problem, Dead Meat's lipo charger is(how we say) up-the-spout, one minute it was looking promising the next minute it was dead, i would be really gratefull if someone could bring along a spare charger or wouldn't mind letting me use theirs acasionly at the event.
it is a 2-cell 200mah lipo that came with josh's kit

ValliANT is looking fast and agressive, the flipper is at last on and today flipped 450g's (after about 20 secs of hard lifting and a strange grinding noise, no the gears aint stripped, but i decided 150g's is all i need to lift) .

sorry for any stress!!!

You're welcome to use my lipo charger. I think I've got a spare 2-cell one I don't use anymore, if not, you can share my main one (the one that beeps really, really loud XD)

No problem. For reasons I can't really explain I now have 5 LiPo chargers, so you won't have a problem charging.
