yes , just decrease your throttle trim on your transmitter ,then take the throttle stick to down right then the led should come up,to disarm it take the stick to down left ,then do the esc calibration ,last night or you could say today morning :p i tried to lift the quad but then the battery catastrophe happened

if it goes below .5 volts just check its resistance using continuity tester, if it has no resistance then no way to recover.

Continuity is in your multimeter, You can also use the low resistance range, Is your multimeter digital?

Measure the resistance of your damaged cell as you measure a actual resister, but consider polarity of multimeter probe matches that of battery.

But, don't bother about it now.., Put it connected to the charger and also connect the multimeter to live monitor charging voltage..., Check temperature change in Intervals.

@akhil, that case can be understood buy checking heating up of charger, if battery is short, the charger will heat up like hell, isn't it?

@rohan, where did you bought this? Ask a replacement if you can.
Check PM

No 2S cell will give only max. 8.2V out, It is no use with big multirotors, Can be used for small higher KV motors. Did you tried charging ?

With 5v mobile charger. for atleast few minutes or in worst case for hour, don't forget to monitor charging voltage, LiPo temp. , Charger temp lively,  Thumbs Up

I gave up on the hexacopter for today, no use discharging the battery, my charger is still on it's way to home through EMS!! expect it tomorrow or Day after. Next try after exam tomorrow !!

The use of NiCd charger is what we are attaining with This cellphone charger, !!!,
Unlike a LiPo balance charger, A NiCad charger doesn't care the minimum voltage to detect battery, they just charge the battery to threshold level. But a Lipo charger detects a cell only if it is above 3V and if the cell voltage goes below this , a LiPo charger won't detect the cell.
   What we are trying with cellphone charger is to Charge the cell up to 3V so that LiPo balance charger could detect it .

If you are still afraid to charge this cell, give it a rest and take out any old computer SMPS, to check and tune your quad !!
