Hello Gary ..

I normally recharge either on the way home after flying, or after getting home. Depends on the mood of the day. I do not have a battery pack in every plane. I use the same battery pack in all my planes.... take it out at end of the day and reinstall the next time, in what ever plane I decide to fly that day. So, in the shop, I have a 24 hour timer. Transmitters are plugged into the timer. I normally have spare Flight pack that i also take with me. I keep those two flight packs plugged into the timer. I have the timer set to charge every morning, 7 days a week, from 5:00 AM till 6:00 AM. that way, any time that i want to go flying, or someone calls and wants to go flying, I am ready. works for me.
