What are the charging times on the stock battery? and how do you know if it's fully charged?

The stick battery charging time is quick, however my helicopter barely made it off the ground more than a few inches on full power. Best wishes in your search.

The stock charger will not charge this. The stock battery has electrodes on the side of the battery case while this battery does not.

Two questions: is the charger functioning properly? And, is the battery old and no longer able to be charged?

While I can't tell you that I can tell you that doing a bit of checking goes a long way. I'd look at the stock OEM battery if you still have it. Get the model Number and look around starting with that. It's what I did when I didn't find a battery that listed my laptop model. I now have a fine Anker battery and a 2 hour battery life.

If you turn it on while it is charging, the battery icon that it has in the top right corner will cycle between three bars flashing and when all three bars are visible and no longer flashing, it is fully charged. Just so you know, when you charge it while it is off, the battery icon doesn't appear but it still does charge.

Sorry if this sounds stupid but is the battery fully charged ? Mine did the same thing when I first took it out of the box. When the battery is dead it takes four hrs on the provided charger to bring it up to full charge. If the battery gets warm to the touch take it off the charger for sure. The tank should run for 30 min or so before it needs recharging. Other than that check for loose plugs going to the receiver and battery. to tell you the truth it sounds just like the way it went for me when I took mine straight out of the box and tried to run it on the uncharged battery. Sorry but that's about all i've got . Just the obvious. Good luck.

A brand new battery can take up to 3 hours to fully charge. After the battery has been charged and depleted to under 5% about ten times, the charge that is held takes about 2 - 2.5 hours to fully charge.

It takes like 3 hours to fully charge. A flashing light indicates that its charging. A solid light means its fully charged.

Bought it for someone. Don't know the charging period. All I know is that it has been helpful. It last longer than the original battery

You can use your stock charger like normal. The supplied charger is for charging the second battery at the same time.

Yeah that's normal. Charge it overnight. That's actually a good sign. A slow charge is better. Same with mine. 6-8 hours.

None of these answers look right to me.. From the manual: "It takes at least 24 hours to fully charge the battery". From the quick start guide: "Before you start, charge for 2 hours minimum". Basically: 24 hours for a full charge. If you can't wait to use it, make sure you charge for 2 hours before using it the first time.

It is hard to tell when it is fully charged. However I do not leave on the charger more than 12 hours. This has allways been good. I would not just leave it on charge. Just my thoughts.

With the stock battery around 12 minute's. .i bought a high performance battery as an extra and it runs almost 25 minutes. . Charging varies with battery size.. around an hour i think. You want to let a Lipo battery cool down before you charge it.

My battery had a minimal charge when I RECEIVED it.I believe we are expected to fully charge it before using.

I would charge it for a full 15 hours before using it. They usually come partially charged, so doing a full charge is the best way to be sure.
