It's a standard "Thunder Power"-style balancing connector. So the type of connector you need is Female Thunder Power on one end, Male "JST" on the other end, standard wiring. Also, where, the receiver pack is only 2S, balancing isn't strictly required (imbalance is less likely), so you could charge in serial as a 2S LiPo from any of a number of chargers. It needs to be a 7.4v Lithium Ion compatible charger, though.

I tried looking up the connector, but tppacks.com seems to be out of stock on everything. Check any of the other popular online heli sites, or better yet, visit your local hobby shop to talk about your need.

The Align / e-flite / electrifly connector is called JST-XH. It can be found on ebay.

Most online hobby shops sell a female TP to male JST-XH adapters. Just do a little googling. Here's an example:
