    IMAX B6AC V2 Charger Broken Trace

    Yeah I have like three of them. I've never been able to get them to work. I only even heard about braid recently which is weird because i've been soldering for years, need to get some of that. And I did have an iron with an adjustable temp knob, but it took forever to heat up and eventually...

    IMAX B6AC V2 Charger Broken Trace

    Oh ok that's what I figured, and yeah might aswell, would be interesting if he figured it out just so I know what it was.

    IMAX B6AC V2 Charger Broken Trace

    Well what happened was I soldered one of the red wires to it, and then when I tried to just stick the other one on to the same blob I had down, the other wire came off, I had to put more solder on to get that solder to melt so I could fix the first wire, and blabla by the time I got both on...

    IMAX B6AC V2 Charger Broken Trace

    I'll be the first to admit I'm terrible at soldering. I can't keep my hands steady at all. Gave up painting WH40k because of it. Shit I hope it's not early parkinsons.. But also those connection points are absolutely tiny and I had to solder tiny wires to them while avoiding all the other...

    IMAX B6AC V2 Charger Broken Trace

    I did a better video: so as far as I can tell the actual board with the plugs is completely fine, so the problem must be elsewhere further down the line, and that balance connector board won't help at all.

    IMAX B6AC V2 Charger Broken Trace

    Alright, I'll get that if I can't fix this + the balance breakout board thing doesn't work (Don't have high hopes but could still be useful with any charger). I recorded a video of me testing the continuity with all the pins, can someone check it looks good?

    IMAX B6AC V2 Charger Broken Trace

    Thing is, the amount of money I spend on my guns, I'm not gona skimp when it comes to a lipo charger when they're "only" £60 (yes expensive but I see it as an investment, and well, this has been running great for like 3 years until I fubard it. If I wanted to get a new charger but a really...

    IMAX B6AC V2 Charger Broken Trace

    There's no way I'm gonna skimp on a lipo charger of all things. Whole reason I got a legit IMAX to begin with. I can get one of those boards for about £5.50 on ebay. I'll try that and see if I can get balance charging working with it. Thing is, I went through every single pin / connection from...

    IMAX B6AC V2 Charger Broken Trace

    Well I did as much as I could and the continuity all checks out but still can't see cell2. I just turned off balance in the settings now I can charge lipos for the time being. I found this thing: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Parallel-Charging-Board-Battery-Charger/dp/B07BSHN8T2 It seems to...

    IMAX B6AC V2 Charger Broken Trace

    Well I had a go. I soldered two of the points between the burnt trace, checked for continuity, all good. Still not working: https://streamable.com/s6r7nv Not sure what else to try. And cheap? They are like £60! Seems to be an issue detecting Cell2. Any ideas? I checked under the...

    IMAX B6AC V2 Charger Broken Trace

    Long story short I shorted the balance connector on my imax, took it apart and I've blown the trace on it. Is this how it should look? Or does it skip the middle one (by the looks of it?) If anyone has one and can help just take the screws off the side panels and slide it out, take a picture...

    Yeah iI needed something small enough that would fit in the stock, still need to dremel out some of the inside though. https://www.modelsport.co.uk/product/spektrum-2200mah-3s-11.1v-100c-smart-lipo-battery-ic3-443852

    Some more glamour shots: Pretty much 100% complete on the outside now unless anyone has any suggestions.

    Pretty much complete, my basically scratch-built custom gun, the Orion: I'm getting a titan and dremelling the GB to fit it in there so I can get it over 35 RPS.

    Nice did he do that? I was thinking of going for something like this on my new build: This is what I have as a base: Thinking of getting a PDW9 stock, getting it cerakoted like that pic, but with touches of gold, like the MPX in the new matrix: What d'you guys think?

    Lots of parts came back from Supreme Coatings today, can get my scarh, orion, and half my new build started. Here's what the ACR stock looks like with the black cheek rest:
