Hi,

This is a very useful thread. I nominate this to be a sticky.

Plug in the deans (-neg and resistor) then the 5.5mm (+pos)

And I can still charge with the deans (no adapters) as all my chargers have deans.

Cool. I'm going to have to stop by ratshack soon and figure out which resistor I need for my 4s and 5s (5000mah, roughly) packs. The theory end of it I'm not real clear on.

I second the sticky status. I had found this info on the MGM site, but I would have know it a lot sooner if it were a sticky. Good info for everyone running high powered brushless.
