I had spoiled 2 lipo batteries
1) 3s 1600mah Turnigy
2) 3s 2300mah Indpower.
Here i lost 1 cell in each LiPo..
I am deciding to make a new lipo pack with the remaining 4 cells, was wondering will it be ok if i mix two different ampere rating of the batteries?
1) Is it safe or unsafe?
2) What are the things i need to take care while doing this?
3) Is there any advantage or disadvantage?
Ask questions or you will never get the answers.

1) Completely unsafe.
2) Don't do it.
3) Disadvantages only.

In short, no. 2 different capacities by 2 manufacturers...

One cell will get depleted before the other. Packs need to have matched internal resistances.
