Default charging 6 volt Rx battery

is a special charger required to charge a 6 volt battery or can the regular combination Tx/Rx be used?

It will never get fully charged using the wall-wart.

Any peak-detect charger that can charge 5 cells will charge your 5-cell receiver pack.

What is the capacity of your 5 cell pack? you should be able to charge it on your reg charger, if the capacity is lower than 700 i would plug it in to the RX side of the charger , if its over 700mah use the TX side of the charger.

This explains it http://www.rcbatteryclinic.com/wallwart.htm
