I think people are too careless with overcharged/overdischarged lipos. If it puffs or drops to a super low voltage get rid of it. Not worth risking burning down your house. The "it will never happen to me" attitude will eventually prove you wrong.

Nope. my Airtronics M8 handles it just fine.

I know the spektrum Dx3/2.0 can handle 3s fine also.

Yeah I actually edited my post because I remembered a lot of radios still take more than 4 AA cells. I'm just used to my Losi MTX Pro and Nomadio Sensor which both are only 4.8v-6v

Simplechamp-I did it outside my house in a wheelbarrow full of gravel away from everything but green grass. The battery is still there as I type this till tonight when I will discharge it and then dispose of it. Thanks for your concern though.

The battery in question was used for a starter box (14.8v 4s 2200mah) not my transmitter.
