| Nice to see the thread restarting now that the “building season” is well and truly with us! The instrument panel looks really nice.
I use a “field” charger for the flight batteries on my electric glider but have always been a bit wary of using it to charge Rx and Tx batteries. With the very unpredictable weather we’ve had this year, which meant it was difficult to decide whether or not to charge up for flying the next day, I did start to use it for Rx batteries but continued to use slow charging for the Tx and having just read your account above I’m glad I did! I wonder how many people are aware that there is a diode in the charging circuit or what its effect can be? |
