Default Battery Charger advise/basic: 1650nimh

OK:
New to sport. I have a trainer {Futaba radios} that I replaced the receiver battery with a 4.8V/1650 mah NIMH battery. My wall charger is only a 50 mah charger.
1. I've been told this wall charger will not fully charge to 1650 mah. true?
2. If so, I need to buy a charger that will {assuming the 1/10 rule} charge at 165 mah for 10 hours to completely charge. true?
3. I've been told the ACE Digipulse charger is a good one. true?
4. Beginner question: Why not just buy a quick field charger and do it this way all the time? Is this not good for the battery?
