Hi,
My question is noobish  Bang Head
I have recently bought Taranis plus radio. It didn't had a  inbuilt charger so I am planning to charge it externally through IMAX B6 charger.
I am confused on how to charge this OEM battery through IMAX as the battery got only one small balance lead only.
So please let me know how should I charge this? Should i need to get some adapters?

Nicad - Nimh batteries don't require balance leads and you need to charge that in nimh mode at say c/5 rate (select that in the IMAX B6)

Dont crash Heli, Crash Tx
You need to connect your lipo directly to the main charger output. You can unpin the connector that i have highlighted and use it to charge your nimh lipo.

I had the same issue I removed pins from a jst connector and soldered them to xt60 using silicon wire  just make sure you get positive & negative right and charge at 0.5 amps

Why you want to remove the Battery to charge it ? Ideally ALL chargers have a "Charge" port, which is usually the DC Jack pin (unless you are using a Futaba Snob). When the Power switch is Off, the Battery is conencted to the charge port. You can safely charge NiMH inside the Tx by making a DC Jack pin cable which connects to your B6 Charger (careful about polarity ) and charging in the NiMh mode of B6.
