Best way to charge ST16 battery externally

A lot of chargers can store your settings, so hopefully yours does?, it makes it easier when switching between different types etc.

Yes I did hit save.
Sometimes I find I have
To hit it twice to make sure it's saved.

Check the settings and make sure the charge voltage for LiIo is set to 4.2 V (4200mV) and discharge voltage no lower than 3.2V (3200mV).


Thanks again.
I made a new Discovery
On my ST16 Battery.

When I put it in the stock charger and charge it to the full mark (where as the graphic shows full )
Once the controller is turned on it only
reads 94%
This may be due to the
Age of the Battery.
What are your thoughts ?

The graphic in the ST-16 for charge level of the battery is not very accurate. I use a 2A USB charger for a tablet PC when charging the ST-16’s battery and leave it charging at least 30 minutes after it shows full on the graphic. The USB outlet on the TH OEM charger is only 1 to 1.5 amps.

What are you getting in performance willh the battery? By the time I get up in the air it's about 97% I can fly 4 batteries, I'm down in the 80% mark, still good for a few more, if your having a dramatic fall off, then perhaps a new battery or at least a spare is needed, I wouldn't worry too much about the voltage % mark it's indicative , the charger and controller are + and - a small percentage,

I am just killing time learning everything
I can through the winter months.
I actually do have
2 ST16 Batteries.
A friend told me when you remove the battery from the controller.
You lose the time in the internal clock.
No Biggie.

No, if I had a spare I probably would.

What charger do you
Have ?
I have 2 C240 Duo chargers that I use for the TH batteries and Breeze batteries. I use a 2 amp USB charger from a tablet PC for charging the ST-16 battery in the controller.

I am under the assumption you leave your battery in your controller when you use your USB charger from your laptop.
