PArallel charging packs w/ different capacities?
I'm outfitting my new plane with A123 packs, and I plan to use a 2400mah for rx and a 1100mah for ignition. However, I only have one charger capable of handling A123s (BC-6). I've been wondering if there was a way to connect the two packs together so that I could charge them both at the same time. Just not sure how the charger would handle everything. Can this be done SAFELY?

Re: PArallel charging packs w/ different capacities?
nope. And you can't parallel charge batteries anyway unless you have a charger capable of it. If one of these is an rx pack and the other an ignition pack and you want a cheap charger that will do the job, check thses out:
