[LASS Soaring] Li-Po Batteries

[Nex12Go at aol.com]

I have a 3 cell battery.  There are two leads coming out of it.   1) is a two 
wire (black & red).  and 2) a four wire (orange, white,  black & blue).  I 
need to know the purpose of these two leads.  i  am thinking that the 2 wire 
lead goes to the battery side of an ESC and  the 4 wire lead is the charging 
circuit.  I am guessing that it is the  balancer connector.  I am guessing I need 
to buy a balancer connector  cable or make one up for my Triton charger?  
 
It will be ready to fly by Saturday.
 
 
     
If you don’t look fast, it’ll be by you before  you know it. What is it? It’
s the XPD-8 ARF — the future of ducted fan  technology. The HyperFlow unit 
(and accompanying 370 brushed motor) is  matched with the ideal jet design. 
Molded from durable foam, it’s painted,  repairable and capable of being on the 
flight line in less than two hours.  With a span of just over 24”, the XPD-8 can 
be kept in the car for  impromptu flying.  
A hand grip on the bottom  offers easy, one-person launching.  
Flight specs:
    *   Straight and level top speed = 56 mph
    *   “After Dive” straight and level top speed = 67 mph
    *   Climb angle = 60°
