      If you have a charger that will charge NiMH batteries, you could trickle up the voltage.. I did that with my BC6 charger with a Reedy LiPo that went to low. I just charged it back up to 7 volts and never had another problem..

        just charge it for about 30 seconds on nihm 2.5 amps till its up to 6.0v it doesnt take long then tranfer it over to lipo mode and finish charging. it works and have done it many times successfully.
