Default need help with Hyperion balance adapter

I have a hyperion EOS0606i. I bought it because it has the balancer built into it. I bought a couple of TrakPower 4900 packs and am now stuck.

Do I need to fab up some sort of adapter so I can balance while charging these packs, or can an adapter be bought for this? If I need to build my own, are there instructions somewhere?

Any help would be much appreciated.

They had no help to offer as far as balancing the TrakPower packs. I should have expected it, They don't carry the batteries..........

They (MaxAmps) should be coming out with a ROAR approved pack in the next couple of weeks. I am interested.

Check out this thread at the bottom of the page. I made an adapter for my hyperion using a 6s pack side tap from maxamps and two 4mm bananna plugs and 1 2.5mm bananna plug, and some wire. It is really easy to make.

Thanks! I have ordered everything I need and am very confident now that I will be able to do this safely and pretty cheap too.
