Andy,

It appears I have a bad lipo.  I purchased a 3s 2200mAh 20C Blue LiPo just recently.  I have maybe between 5 and 10 flights on this battery and all of a sudden my charger gave me an error.  I restarted the charge and viewed the individual cells.  The first cells' voltage was going all over the place.  I stop it and charged an 1800mAh and it was fine.  I tried the 2200 again and this time it appeared the first two cells were bad.  I hooked the battery to my Equinox balancer and it gave me an error of "bad connection".

I bought this battery through a local Hobby Partz/Nitro Planes distributor.  Is there anything that can be done?

Thanks!
