LiPo cells should not be discharged to below 3.0V each under load. In
the case of the 2-Cell/2S 8.4V LiPo battery used to power the Gamma
370 V2, you will not want to allow the battery to fall below 6.0V
during flight.
The electronic speed control (ESC) has low voltage cutoff (LVC)
protection. When the flight battery voltage drops below a set point
the throttle gradually is reduced. At this point the airplane will need
to be landed and the battery recharged.

LiPo BATTERY CHARGING
PLACE THE 205C CHARGER ON A FLAT, SMOOTH AND HEAT-RESISTANT SURFACE.
It’s important that air is able to circulate through the charger during the charging process in order to
keep it from over-heating. It’s especially important that the vent openings on the bottom and sides
of the charger are not blocked. DO NOT place the charger on carpeted or other similar surfaces that
may block the vent openings. Also, DO NOT place the charger in direct sunlight before, during or
after use.
It will take approximately 1 to 1-1/2 hours to fully charge a mostly discharged flight battery.
For faster charging see the Radient Ascend AC-DC charger available at your local Hobby Town store.
Plug power supply into 205C charger. Plug
power supply into main AC power.
Maintain correct polarity when plugging in
3-pin balance connector.
Plug 3-pin balance connector of flight
battery into 205C charger.
Both red and green LEDs will light during
charge. Only red LED will remain lit when
charge is complete.
