You have a dead cell in the transmitter pack.  There are eight cells, each
rated at 1.2 volts.  Determine the dead cell by exposing the batteries, and
using a volt meter to test each one.

It may be possible to restore the dead cell by building a custom circuit.
I don't have a copy of the circuit, but it was posted here a good while ago.
Did anyone build the circuit and restore a dead battery?


What size soldering irod does one need to remove and replace a dead cell in
a Futaba transmitter pack?
