try hookin it up to a normal NiMH charger for quick burst to bring the voltage back up, then go back to the hyperon, you may be able to bring it back if your lucky

You can also try hooking it up to another 2 cell lipo for a few minutes. Then try charging at .5C or less.

good news...I got it back with a standard cheapo losi wall charger for lipo's.....about two hours on that charger got it up to 4 volts so that the hyperion would recognize it.....now we'll see how well it continues to work. Thanks.............
