The description seems accurate but the picture shows a connector with different pin alignment notches.
on the other hand suppliers sometimes don't show the picture for the actual product.
I can't find these connectors in germany. I'll talk to the guys at the local electronics shop, hopefully I can replace the onboard connector with something more common here in germany. Didn't think it would be that hard to find a replacement battery.
I got the LiPo USB Charger yesterday, but it doesn't have the JST-ZHR-2P either. But since I ordered a couple of the connectors from segor (thanks for the link foosel) I think I'll just rip of the plastic housing for the connector and plug the battery directly on to the two pins on the usb charger. Hopefully that works.
I found a suitable male-connector on some PC spares lying around at home... Cutting it out from the board and soldering some wire was easy. I used it with my RC LiPo charger. It woks fine, but is not faster than using the USB port (BTW: even the ones from the Raspberry board !). Haven't tried the "fast charge", as i had some nasty surprise with that mode in the past.
Finally, i keep the battery connected to the Crazyflie and charge it the "standard way" (works also with an iPhone charger): the connectors on the board are not molded to a case and could break away over time.
The microUSB connector should also be treated carefully: i removed the two 2 "spikes" on the male connector (the one on the cable), in order to be able to remove it gently

BTW: Easier to control than my ArduCopter, many thanks to the developer team

Nevermind, the connector is the same and seems to charge just fine. I'm still waiting on my replacement batteries to do some further testing, I don't wanna risk ruining my original battery.
