Charging the LiPo
If you have ordered the DeltaQuad with a LiPo battery it will come with a plug & play charger. This charger
can charge an empty LiPo battery in approximately 6 hours. To charge the battery insert both the power and
balance plugs in the charger, it will commence charging automatically. When the LED light on the charger
turns green the LiPo will have been charged.
The DeltaQuad LiPo can also be charged using a high current charging solution and is capable of charging
within 1 hour if your charger is capable of providing 20 Amperes. Charging at this rate will limit the durability
of the LiPo, it is recommended to charge the LiPo at no more than 5 Amperes for a maximum lifetime.
1. Remove the battery from the vehicle. The battery should never be charged inside the vehicle.
2. Never charge batteries unattended unless you can charge them inside a LiPo safe.
3. Charge in an isolated area, away from other flammable materials.
4. Ensure the battery is at ambient temperature before charging.
Storing the LiPo
The LiPo should be stored in a safe and dark location between 5 and 30 degrees Celsius. If the battery has
been fully discharged, it is recommended to put at least some charge (+- 50%) before long term storage.
