Its easy enough to remove the dead cell, just requires a good iron and possibly some special solder, though all you should need to do is desolder the wires and relocate them- see BrianG's site for a diagram of before and after:

I think the trouble is sometimes people start with a larger model that requires expensive electronics, and tend to fail more often due to the amounts of power and potential for damage; nothing like starting small and working your way up to get you used to things...

Agreed, I had several friends jump in with both feet and were quickly consumed with the tediousness and small factors than can easily ruin there prodject becuase due care wasn't excersised. A few were blown away buy how technical this hobby really is and flat out gave up befor venturing forward. Some refused to do their homework and lost several hundreds due to bad decisions,IE gearing etc. and said "This hobby sucks!" when it's their own dam fault ?


I retired from RC, now life is all about guns and long range shooting.

Yeah, you are one of the few people who have actually had failures with a Enerland lipo pack, they simply have a good track record. Nothing is foolproof, nor perfect quality.

Talk the Lincpimp about changing around the pack, he will have some good info for you.
