DIY Arduino Load Bank Lipo Storage/Discharger Station
Sometimes you charge your lipos but didn't flew, so you need storage the lipos.
I found in the flite test website one simple project, so my project basically its a remix.
My changes:
Added a SSD relay;
More Load resistor;
Cooler fan;
XT60 and balance connectors;
Small change in the code for better storage voltage value.
