Husban Zino: Using an after market battery charging cable for a faster charge.

  • I used the 3S JST- XH Charge & Balance Cable from Progressive RC, a ebay seller. I purchased it for $4.99 plus shipping. I used it to charge my Hubsan Zino in half the time then one Hubsan included in box. This cable made it easy to hook the Zino battery up the iMax B6 hobby grade charger. It should also give me a better balanced charge. I will do a test flight shortly to see if I get more flight time or better performance from this charging method.

    Ron, set your B6 to LiHV, not LiPo. That will get you to 11.4 for a 3s battery. Also, you should never let those banana plugs dangle free. They should be plugged in first. In the second half of your video I was cringing as you came very close to dead-shorting your battery when the connectors almost touched before you plugged them in. This could be very nasty with a LiHV battery.

      @RonaldBrown59  5 лет назад +1

      Thanks Thomas, I will try to do an update to the video showing the LiHV setting. But since the battery is marked LiPo on the back, how would you know to change it to LiHV?

    • @ThomasHart59
      @ThomasHart59 5 лет назад +1

      @@RonaldBrown59 The voltage. 11.4 is a LiHV voltage for 3 cells. If it were plain LiPo, it would be less. Also LiHV is Lithium Polymer High Voltage. So Hubsan marking it LiPo (as its chemical makeup) is not incorrect.

    The Zino batteries are LiHV ... Not LiPo ... If charged on LiPo they are actually undercharged. The same connector can be used on the Bebip Power Batteries that are also LiHV. The charger is great and charges the Zino battery to 13.05v.

      Iقناة أبو ياسر للتقنية With a hobby grade charger, you need two ways of connecting to it. And with the charging cable that comes with the Zino, you only get the balance port.

    You also call the stock Zino charger as a balance charger, but mather fact, it is NOT a balance charger.
    And that should be the main concern about the stock Zino charger.
    You should replace the stock charger foremoust to get control of your battery charging...not to get faster charging only.
    With the stock charger, you have no control of the balance of the tree cells in the battery, and that is maybe the main reason why many Zinos drops to the ground.
    The cells are not balanced after charging, and formoust it is the center cell that is moust out of balance.
    The cell drops too fast in voltage, and makes the battery out too fast, and it can make your Zino drop to the ground.
    With a real balance charger, like your B6 yopu have full controll of the balance.

    NEVER EVER plug that harness into the battery before plugging the banana plugs into the charger! You can short the battery with the dangling banana plugs! You change the 11.1v to 11.4v by selecting the LiHV setting on the charger.
