Charging:
Remove the battery from the model during charging. Make sure that battery and
connectors are dry.
You will notice that there are 2 plugs with wires coming out of the battery. The white
plug with the white, black, and red wires is the balance plug. This is the plug you use
with the supplied balance charger. This is a keyed plug and will only go in one way.
1. Plug your wall mount power supply into a 120V outlet and connect the balance
charger into the opposite end. The green light on the balance charger will be solid green
to indicate there is power.
2. Connect the battery’s white 3 pin balance
connector into the corresponding port on the
balance charger. A red light will come on, this
indicates that the battery is being charged.
Charging time is Approx 1.5-2 hours.
3. Charging is completed once red light goes
out and the green light stays solid on. If both
lights are still on for more than 2.5 hours,
unplug the battery as the charger may be
defective. Discontinue use immediately and call
LiteHawk Technical Support.
4. Once charging is complete, unplug battery
from charger and unplug charger from wall
outlet.
During charging:
- It is normal for the battery to get warm during the charging process. Do not charge
the battery on a surface that is flammable or can be damaged by heat.
- Do not leave the battery and charger unattended while charging.
- After charging, unplug charger from wall outlet.
