The Jumper T-18 RC radio has just started shipping without any internal

charging capabilities! The In Radio Charging Kit, originally designed for

the early Jumper T-16, is the perfect mod for Jumper’s latest radio but

reconfigured for the board mounted 2S balance connector.

Without the kit, The radio must be opened and the battery holder needs to be unplugged

from the radio and removed, and then the batteries must be removed from the holder and

placed in a charger. Then when charged reverse the process and repeat after next session, until the socket

or connector breaks.

We have developed a kit that includes 2 verified genuine batteries (18650 3500 mAh or 21700 5000 mAh), a 10A balance and protection board to balance charge and protect the batteries from shorts, over charging and low voltage, and a chassis mounted coaxial power jack which requires no soldering. In addition, a 2A smart charger (optional 3A) is provided or an XT-60 adapter to use your own charger. All battery connections are spot welded using 100% nickel strips and insulated with Kapton tape. The installed kit is completely independent of the radio’s electronics and will also work in radios with internal USB C chargers resulting in faster, more reliable charging. The included coaxial charging port and the optional XT-60 charging adapter allows the use of your LIPO charger or purchase the new version, less expensive version, which doesn’t include the external charger. Jumper T-16, T18 and Radio Master TX16S with USB-C internal Charging: We also have 3500 mAh and 5000 mAh battery pack specifically designed for radios incorporating a funtional USB C based internal charger. The USB-C pack will charge internally via the C port and does not included the additional balance board nor power connectors in the kit. The 5000 mAh battery will provide up to 1/3 more flight time then 18650s. An optional LIPO balance charger adapter cable is now available. (Use LI Setting) The kit version also provides 8.4V at the charging port when not in use for charging. An optional coaxial power jack to XT-30 or XT-60 adapter is available to power any 2S gear like an external module or FPV equipment and for rapid charging using your LIPO charger. Other custom adapter cables are available.
