RE: Charging while car is running?
You didn't specify if you're using the "timer type" charger that comes with a park flyer, the simple cigarette chargers or, a field charger, such as a Hobbico. If you're using the simple chargers, don't do it. If you're using a field charger, it should be okay. By no means, should you be charging a Li-Po on the way to the field.
