T48 battery reading 0%

[cfish031]

Like an idiot I removed battery while on and now battery reads 0% even though it has full charge anyone else do this? Did I ruin battery ? Currently trying to drain by leaving on but it takes forever and don't know if it will even work . Any pointers

put it in the AC without props and go full throttle... it will drain faster it is also written in some manual...
just a thought...

Or hook the tx to charge.

Premature pulling out is never recommended....

That being said, it shouldn't ruin your battery. Did you try just draining the battery or plugging it back in. I am not sure where it mentions draining the battery by running the quad with the props off as that is actually really bad for some motors. Maybe the tolerances here are different from what I am familiar with but just check the manual before you go and do that. The motors will run much faster and therefor much hotter with no prop to slow them down.
