Great to see Manufacturers improving our Hobby making it easier for a Beginner. In the last 2 years we have seen full FPV Drone kits ready to fly right out of the box. New simple to use Chargers. Controllers. and Captain Drone Videos to show you how it works. If anyone is thinking about getting into the Hobby Now is the time. Thanks Captain

If you know the storage voltage (3.80v for LiPo as an example), you can select it from the long list of voltages and charge to that voltage.

Steve, this is a question about "charging". There is always a lot of concern about LiPo charging and storage of aircraft batteries. What about care and feeding of the CONTROLLER batteries? Are they LiPo as well and is it safe keep them charged when not being used?

@CAPTAINDRONE798 3 жыл бұрын

Usually controller batteries are one or two cell batteries. Unfortunately if the battery is built in, there is no way to store it.

@galimirnund6543 Жыл бұрын

Is this battery charger proprietary? I got one as part of a drone kit. The little instruction pamphlet wasn't super informative. Will it charge batteries for a DJI/FPV? That would be nice if I could only use 1 of them.

@CAPTAINDRONE798 Жыл бұрын

This is an RC Hobby battery charger. Your DJI batteries are made for beginners (i.e., they are idiot proof) so they charge slow and you have no say in how they charge. Your RC Hobby battery charger is a million times better but it can only charge RC Hobby Batteries that are NON-PROPRIETARY. Since all camera GPS drones are designed for beginners, such drones all have PROPRIETARY idiot proof batteries that can only be charged on the charger that came with them.

Wrong decision to use battery capacity to choose charge current. Charge currence depend on discharge current. The 75c may means max charge current is 75 divided by 10. Wrong to charge 1500mah 1c with 1.5 amps thats blowing up battery.

@CAPTAINDRONE798 3 жыл бұрын

Thanks for the input but you may live in a country where this is a problem. In most of the world (Europe & North America) The "C" rating is for when you wish to exceed the standard input charge amps. We do not have batteries on the planet in the RC world with "1C", the minimum is "25C", and the standard for the hobby is "50C". In the FPV Drone world and RC Race Car world, and RC Boat and RC Plane world, with brushless motors and large capacity ESCs, we go with "75C" and higher.
