Hi guys,
Another Lipo question for you. SORRY.
When fast charging, do you stick to 1C? Also, is the charge as complete as a normal charge. That is, will flight times and power be the same. What are the cons of fast charging? Thank you!

OK
Remember these lipos are like high maintenance women, you better treat em right or they're not gonna stick around. It may overheat if you charge over 1C, which is bad for lipos. My charger's fast charge only keeps a constant 1C throughout the total charge, its regular charge slows down to .2 amps to finish the charge.

Ah, I see, so it does not slow down towards the end of the charge. Yeah, I would never charge over 1c. I charge at 2amps for my 2200s.
From my experience with high maintenance women, you don't tream em' right so they DO stick around. [:-]
Thanks
