| ElectricVoyager 50 electric:
1. I charge my 3300 mah pack using a Shulze Camaleon charger. I bought mine here : Shulze charger
I simply charge from my truck/car battery. Open the hood and connect the charger. Your car is there anyway
2. I charge the same way at home, except I have a deep cycle 12V marine battery in the shop. Takes about 45 minutes per battery.
3. Got a 12 volt battery charger from Home Depot for my shop battery. The car battery charges it self.
4. To start the Voyager, I simply spin up the blades with my finger (4 or 5 turns) so the AXI motor does not have to spool them up from a dead still. Then step a few steps back an slowly ad power. Dont slam the throttle, but let the chopper slowly build up speed in order to keep the tail steady. (Takes about 10 seconds for the entire operation).
That's how i do it... There may be better ways, but it works for me. I have four battery packs, so I pretty much always have a full pack available.
