battery for charging
 

hello everyone,
I'm a new comer to electric F3A. I have still some problems about E-F3A. One of them is about a battery for charging.
I think there is two ways to charge at an airfield. One way is to use a very heavy battery. Another way is to use a small portable dynamo. Some people in my country take the latter way. I hate a heavy battery, so I think to want to use a dynamo. However I'm not familiar to this way.
Please tell me some suggestions about this. Are there other good ideas for charging anywhere?
thanks

Sarashina,

When it comes to battery charging methods, the choices are limited. Other than the two ways you have mentioned, I have been lucky enough to be flying at a field equipped with electrical outlets to charge my flight packs, but when I travel to other sites without this option, I have to either use other people’s generator, or finish all the packs I have and leave. Since I really didn’t want to purchase and maintain a generator for occasional use, I used the fund to purchase more packs instead. But if I have to fly at a field without electrical outlets, I will most likely be purchasing a generator to charge batteries.

Kevin,

thank you for informations.
There are few airfields that have electrical outlets in my country, but your method is indeed the best.
thanks again.
