Best Charger?
I'm looking for a cheaper but good charger that can charge the Nano CPX. I don't like the idea of using AA batteries to charge the heli batteries.
Is there a universal charger that can do everything Blade? Nano CPX, MCPX BL, 180 CFX, 300, 400 etc... Thanks!

I would think that most lipo chargers these days can do it. My Racing Star RS16 goes down to 0.1A which would work (or could do 0.2), so really it's more about being able to buy the adaptor so you can connect it.
I was lucky that my kids' MCX came with the power cable for the stock Nano charger so just use that. You can buy this for yours if you prefer not to use AAs.

I use one of these for my little 1S batteries. It's perfect for a Nano.

I have the following combo and love it: http://www.usastore.revolectrix.com/...A-XH_Combo_102 I run it with one of these: http://www.ebay.com/itm/24v-24-Volt-...item3cf053a332 I actually have two of those power supplies, and have considered buying a second combo in order to charge 12 batteries at once! |

I use this for my 1Sbatteries http://hitecrcd.com/products/charger...harger/product but I also have some helimax products which use a different connector
for my larger one si use a Great Planes Triton or Triton JR with my larger planes/ heli's I charge a few packs fly for a morning then spend the afternoon or next day re charging, my micros for some reason I want them charged all the time and ready for that perfect low wind day

When I was starting out I was advised to purchase the best charger I could. I had the money and was ready to get the powerlab 8, but at the last minute I got the pl6 to save some dough. Big mistake! Now I'm limited to 6s lipos and I really want to charge some 7s packs right now but I cant... Just get a powerlab 8 be done with it. It's really cheap compared to other things in this hobby,

E-flite just put out a 4 port one that handles all their micro stuff 1s and 2s
http://www.e-fliterc.com/Products/Su...rodID=EFLC1105 You can do them all with one charger if you get adapter boards and stuff but the boards will likely cost you as much as this charger. |
