Default RE: Recharging receiver bat.

One other thing,
The rating on the pack 1400mah say, is the capacity and not the discharge rate. While it could discharge at that rate it can also discharge at a much lower or higher rate. The difference being how long the battery would supply power at the actual discharge rate. For example a battery rated at 4000mah will delive 4000 ma for 1 hour, 2000ma for 2 hours or 8000ma for 1/2 hour, etc.
The rating 1C describes the current that it takes to charge a battery in 1 hour. so for a 4000mah battery the 1C rate would be 4 amps.
