Default Lipo repair

The charge plug on my Flightmax 5800 came loose and the wires touched. The battery arched and fried the charge wires down to the base of the battery pack. I removed the plastic wrap and found the aluminum solder on the pack to be intact and the remains of the charge wires still soldered. Should I try and solder a new charge plug to the pack and wrap it back up or toss it out?

Thanks ahead of time

Check the voltage of each cell. It could be a chance that it's still good.

Default battery

It still reads 7.2 +- so that is fine. I guess I need to know if its safe to repair.
