Aerobird Challenger battery charger question
I have seen that the Challenger only comes with a Peak Charger and no regular Plug Into Your House Charger. Is it possible to get one so I could have it charging while I am at school? Or else I will have to buy one of those 30 dollar electric car outlet thingies. 30 dollars doesn't come cheap to a 14 year old. So is there any chance to get a regular charger and still use the peak charger for when I'm at the field? Any help would be very nice.

There is a wall wart charger for the Aerobird batteries. The same shop that sold you the plane should also carry the charger. Expect a full charge to take upwards of 3 hours. Also, both the peak charger and the wall charger are notorious for having the plugs coming loose, so be careful with them!

3 hours is nothing compared to 7 hours of school each day. The peak charger could help at the field, the wall charger can charge before I go to the field.

yes. you can get the wall charger for the aerobird, i have one. remember that you must FULLY DISCHARGE the batter before you charge it with the wall charger. do this byrunning the engine at half throttle untill the battery stops.
