I rewired the stock radio jack and charge through that. These cells don't seem to like much more than 0.5A charge rate though; the voltage jumps too high for my liking. I figure 0.3A (~0.1C) is a good rate even though it does take around 7.5 hours. But these shouldn't need to be charged as often. The Spektrum draws 127mA, which means these 2200mAh cells should run it for around 17 hours.
