resistors

[jjrctech]

What type of resistors can be install on a 6s lipo to stop the big spark when plug them in?

Thanks

There have been several threads on this somewhere. The SEARCH button is always a good fast tool.

I use two 10 Ohms resistors in parallel. That's 5 Ohms, so the inrush current wont be higher over 25.2/5=5.x A with 6S packs. No spark at all.

This is how it looks like.

Here is the "no spark" calculator. Fill in the blanks and it will give you the best series resistance circuit for your setup. No guessing. Just the facts. http://scriptasylum.com/rc_speed/nospark.html
