Guys

I would welcome some opinions and advice

I just bought some pre made 10 cell RC2400 from a reputable supplier
delivered through the post for a brushless twin jet and a 2.7m thermal
soarer permax 600 +3.1GB both prev used 7 cells and BEC.

The 2.7m soarer now climbs well and had no problems, however the twin jet
flew like a rocket until I had a little glitch followed by a big glitch and
it came down, airframe in one piece but battery pack flew 60 yards from
impact.

On inspecting the pack there were 4 breaks between the inline soldered
packs, I am guessing there was a problem with this pre impact (maybe dropped
in the post) as I have had not previous TJ problems.

The question that arrises is that with shrink wrapped packs you cannot see a
problem with this type of end to end soldering and it is clearly at risk of
breaking down due to even mild impacts.  What is the solution:-

-would you just solder them back together (tell me how)
-should you use joining tabs or should you use the braided tabs if so how
much care and heat etc should you use.

I also think I will can the BEC from now on.

Thnaks in advance
