What would the proper charging current be for a 11.1V, 2200mAh, 3S battery (Trex 450) be? The default in the setup selects .45A. I've learned from other batteries that the Elite will select a charge current lower that the tiny charger that comes with the battery. It selected ,25A for the batteries for my son's Axe CP when the chargers that came with it were .4.

Eagerly awaiting some enlightening info...thanks tons in advance!

You can safely charge a 2200mah battery at 2.2 amps, I don't think the ACE will push that much though.

Barracuda is right. You can charge at 2.2 amps but the ACE will only put out 2 amps so you can safely set it up for 2 amps.

I'd like to charge as fast as possible without burning my house down! :DOH
