No,it's a JST connector.

Discharge = balancer connector?
Zippy (Flightmax), Turnigy, HXT have an JST-XH balancer.

These are very good batteries. I fly A 12oz foamy. It last About 6min. barly warm. heat kills lipo's

Very good value for the price. I hope that 20C discharge will be enough for HK250.

po_au (81%)
it'll be enough at least normal flights.
I have tried this on my trex250, get longer hovering time than align 850. each time I charge it shows approx 900~980. this is value buy mate.

alex (92%)
20c x 800mA =16 amp with 24 amp bursts
i have 8 of thees & their great in my trex 250s

What type of plug does it come with? Not the balance plug but the one that you use for discharging? Deans copy? JST? Nothing? they do not say and in the pic the battery is hiding it. thank you in advance

According to the reviews for the 2S version of this battery it comes with a Deans ultra connector, or what some call a "T" style Deans.

Turbobeaver (98%)
A recent change of events brought on by a patent infringement on the Deans Ultra Connector,has caused recent changes to what is now going to be the new standard in battery connections here at UH.I don't think they know themselves what that new standard is going to be yet thus not displaying ANY battery connectors on any of the batteries till this is finally decided.My advice to you?Sit tight and wait for the smoke to clear on this one.

alex (92%)
recived 8 of theas 3 cell babbies today yes they do cume withe the T style similer & compatible to the deans

Felipe (30%)
I think my came with bullet connectores, anyway I replace every connector with XT60, thery are the best

HZ Super Cub upgrade ! ! ! ! !
Here we go .....
First the Super Cub is a very good starter plane, very flyable and very repairable for first timers. My 11 yo son has been flying this for a couple years now (thanks to Gorilla glue) and has become quite good with it.
As skills improve and number of flights on the provided nimh battery increases, you find quickly that nimh batts don't hold up very good and fail yearly. Expensive to say the least, $30 for new nimh that lasts a season. This is the answer, the lipo package size is a perfect replacement, fits the battery box with room to spare.
The additional voltage will no doubt shorten the brush life of the 400 stock motor, but so far after two seasons we're still going strong, and the additional rpm per volt makes for really silly 2' take offs, lots of fun. Two things are necessary, first there is a jumper on the stock receiver for hi/low voltage cut off that needs to come off, you will see it in the cockpit from under the wing, secondly get a 3s monitor/buzzer from this great store. The battery, wires and monitor wires fit well under the compartment cover, we fixed some velcro to the underside of the buzzer and to the underside of the fuse so that the led is visible and the low voltage buzz is heard well, the wires protrude from under the flexible plastic battery cover with little trouble. Viola, you now have a Super SUPER Cub with longer flight times, way more power and a replacement battery that performs better at 1/3 the cost.
My only issue it that not long ago the zippy line offered a 1000 mah with the same package size, now with flightmax they're 800mah, what gives, I guess I should've bought more 1000mah last year, so far the 800's have held up well and with no problems, the decrease in flight duration does seem noticable but you can still keep this plane in the air until you get tired of flying(as if)

I use "sumo" glue. It foams up A little better. gorilla glue works good too.

Nice. Ive had great success with my other Zippy batteries, so Ill be getting a few of these for the T-Rex 250 once it hits the US shores... Provided the batteries are in stock by then... HURRY UP!!

I posted this in the reviews area.. My bad!!

Leismann (77%)
I received my two batteries today. It cames half loaded. I discharge and charge...bouth charged 810mAh ! Very well finished and it's not like the picture, it's better than that. Soon I'll test it on my shock-flier. I�m waiting for the spektrum receiver...Best, Leismann - Porto Alegre-Brazil
