If it is saying low voltage error, than hit them on with a NiMh charge at 1 amp for about 30 seconds. Than try charging them again on lipo mode.

You switch your charger to nimh mode (if possible). Disconnect the balancer plug. Set the voltage to somewhere between .1 amps and 1 amp. Set it for 6 cell nimh. Plug the charger into the lipo, hit start and let it charge for 10 seconds to 30 seconds. Stop it, switch it back to lipo mode, plug in the balance plug and try charging in the lipo mode.

Usually works if your batteries have been sitting for too long.
