http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin/wti0001p?&I=LXUAB8 is what I use but really any charger than can charge a 6v nimh pack will do. Your gonna have to recharge the 2 7.2v batterys that you will need to run the starter box off as well.

You can get a pretty cheap charger to do the job.  You just need a plug adaptor to connect it to the charger.

ya you can get a cheap wall plug charger for like $10 



but your still gonna need a charger to charge the 2 required 7.2v packs in the starter box. Again tho, you can use cheap wall plug in styles.

Simple, effective and won't cost you an arm and a leg. I all your ever
gonna do with it is charge your RX and stick packs with it this will do
fine. AC/DC is also a plus

Turnigy Accucel

If you ever do decide to move up to Li-ion or Lipo this charger will take care of that as well

Im looking forward to buying an 8ight 2.0 rtr, I have an onyx200 charger. It has a duratraxx onyx200 charger, it has an Rx battery adapter, can I charge the reciever battery (losb9951) with it? What type of connector does the battery have? Thanks.
