You need to set it for 3s lihv 1 to 3 amps with end voltage of 4.35 per cell.

3 amps? 1 should be better to preserve batteries

I'd like to get a couple of extra cables.

How long is the battery last?
I have about 4 cycles and I can not get more than 15-16 min.
I have 3 Zino batteries.
Like all Hubsan batteries that went before, they have a lot to be desired.
Out of the box, all have Total IRs of almost 200mΩ :o
That is shocking, and leads to very poor use of the available capacity.
Saying that, I get 20Min+ even with that, but there is very little time to play once you get down to 25%.

I've found on all 3 of my batteries that there is something peculiar.
The middle cell has a low IR, and the two outers High IR.

.

This is very noticeable after a flight too. The central cell does the lion's share of the work, and it is this cell that obviously drops critically low during a flight too.
I really need to open one of these batteries up and look at what the issue is. I'm guessing it has battery protection circuitry which is causing the high IR on the two outer cells, and the subsequent low voltage on the inner. If anyone has an old battery they don't need I'll take it off your hands for a post mortem. I'm reluctant to strip down a pack which is still working (even if they are substandard).

The way my packs are running at the moment, I don't hold out much hope of getting a long life out of them. That central cell is under a huge amount of stress, and it's going to give up one day...

After my next flight, I'm going to recharge each cell individually to see how much capacity is being lost to the outer two.
Watch this space.
I expect at some time I'll ditch the Hubsan batteries and replace connectors so I can use off the shelf LIHVs with decent performance.

I'd be interested in seeing others IR readings for the packs.

Here's a typical reading on two of mine.

That is correct but the battery is a 3000mah so 3 amps would be the correct 1c charge rate that should be used without harming the battery. It has been proven that charging at 1.4c doesn't hurt the battery as long as it is a Ballance charge.
