A ? on LiFe voltage
Running the Orion 1100mah 2s2p LiFe Rx batt in my D8 with 7955/7985 servos pulling the juice.
I know that Life packs are rated 6.6 and charge to 7.2, but after running the pack for a couple minutes the voltage has dropped to 6.8-6.6ish and stays there until its recharged (up to 40+ mins later). After charging the pack is way out of balance like 3.3 and 3.8 on the cells, but after running for a couple mins its back to normal around 3.3-3.4. Is this normal out of a LiFe battery. I have only ran Lipo before and have never seen the voltage drop so quick and then hold steady for so long, or charge out of balance and then correct itself.
