2. USING YOUR POWER STATION

To operate, locate an AC wall outlet and use the included power

cable to connect the charger to the outlet. Once connected, the

charger screens will illuminate. This can take 3-5 seconds.

Once your Power Station is operational, slide your Q500

compatible battery into the charge bay, making sure that the

battery is not upside down and that the plug and pins align

correctly. The battery should be ﬁrmly inserted into

the Power Station.

At any time, another battery can be installed into the second

charging bay. Both bays are independent of each other so

charging two packs at once does not impede performance.

This charger supports 6A charge rates for both charge bays. A

pack that has been completely discharged in an airframe will

take roughly 60-70 minutes to become fully charged. (A standard

Yuneec charger will take around 120-130 minutes.) Charging two

batteries at the same time does not increase the

overall charge time.

The Venom Q500 Power Station features a handy 2.3A USB output

allowing easy charging of your transmitter or other accessories.

individual cell within the battery via by the way of the three

large battery images on the display.
