How To Use Lipo Battery. Unlike other batteries LiPo batteries use a CCCV system which means Constant Charge Constant Voltage. The proper way to dispose of a swollen lipo battery is the same as what you would do when you throw out any old battery.

If you intent to use your Lipo battery be sure first you have detached any external power - USB cable and power supply from Barrel Jack then you can connect battery. To connect the lipo to the brushless motor I recommend using thicker wire and heavier connectors such as the xt60 that is already on your battery as the motor draws a lot of current. First youll need something to supply power to the charger so it can regulate power to the battery.
Make a visual and physical inspection of the battery.
Connect your power supply to one of these two inputs. A safer method to discharge a LiPo battery is by hooking up its terminals to any device that can act as an electrical load such as a lightbulb or a resistor with high resistivity rating. It is recommended to keep a constant eye on the LiPo when you are charging it with an NIMH charger. At that point its below the storage charge.
