Try charging them s a Nicad, just to get the voltage up. If that does not work, then off to the re-cycling unit....

I have looped them in series to fool the charger and changed them for a short while until the voltage came up. Then I finished charging as normal. But don't leave them unsupervised. If you have any doubts a new battery is cheaper than a new model

I would check them thoroughly and see if you can get meaningful capacity out of them before commiting aviation with them. If they pass the test, you are lucky, ask me how I know! :roll:
