Default lipo help

I have a Intellect 7.4 50C battery. I cannot seem to balanced charge it at 5 amp. I use a hyperion charger. Any ideas?

Thanks in advance.

It all depends on the internal resistance of the pack and c rating of charge.Does it charge at 3 amp or 1 amp ?

How old is it?

When was the last time you charged it?

Why won't it charge? Does the charger just stop prematurely or does the battery just not take a charge? What size (mah) is the battery?

Maybe its the charger... have you tried to charge a similar battery at the same Amps... I would try another battery to see if its a problem with the charger or the battery.. Also try charging the battery on another lipo charger and see if it will take the 5amp charge.
