Hi
I would like to fast charge all my batteries at the field, I currently fast balance charge Flight Powers at about 1.5C and the rest at 1C.
Does anyone have any experience of charging Align Lipo's at greater than 1C? And has there been any problems?
Above 1C would obviously have to be only with a balancer.

Thanks in advance.

I've been fast charging (2c) the 20c 2100 pack that came with my 450 for the last 60-80 cycles, and the pack still has loads of punch.

It depends on the battery, some align packs probably couldn't handle it. Which Align pack(s) do you have?

I've been charging an Align 6S 2600 mah at 2C for a few weeks now, no problem. My charger is set to 95% charge (about 4.17V/cell).

Thanks for the replies
I have Align highpower 25c 2150mah, so far I have not fast charged them, it seems a good battery and I did not want to wreck it.
