Lipo dropped below 3.2v :(

[urbs00007]

i have a cell checker. so when i bring the boat in and check cell voltage, dont run anymore when i hit 3.7 volts?

can you figure a voltage drop for a sport set-up and come up with a lvc that will work at that number and eliminate timing runs? pita timing when you are tuning a boat constantly changing strut etc.

You are at 80% at 3.72 resting voltage. This is the # you don't want to go under. So your cut off can be set to 3.5 or 3.6 The higher the amp draw your boats pulling the lower you can set your LVC because it will spring back up more. For sport set up I would use 3.6 and then check your voltage after your run to see if the LVC worked correctly or not. I have found the LVC on most esc do not work that well so you need to adjust your LVC untill it does.
Thats why most people say time your runs. When I go out I do 7 laps and bring it in because that is how long a race is. I never try to squeeze every mah out of my pack when I run my boats. I think the sweet spot for a 5000 mah pack is no more than 3500 mah when I recharge. Your packs will last so much longer if you can do this. This by the way is for all lipos, not just the ones I sell.

Turnigy nano tech 5s 5000mah. Ran in zonda few times, no idea what happenedthis time but one cell dropped below 3.2 (checked with cellmeter7) got home put on charger says R: 4ser S:5ser. But on the cellmeter and on the charger when I charger it I can see each cell and after a little balance charge they all around 3.5-3.6. HelP please what does this mean? Charging it when it says 4ser 5ser a bad thing?

If your pulling more than 80% out of your packs with these high amp toys you run a risk of hurting your packs
I've actually ran some packs to 3% before on acident and they bounced back but I do not recommend that
