syma x8g question

[ukcatfan717]

So I am new to the world of quads but absolutely love it. I started off buying a nano quad fromantic walmart, then a hubsan q4 h111, and just for Christmas received the syma x8g as I am interested in photography and videography. My question is does anyone know a charger I could upgrade to because it takes 3 to 4 hours to achieve a full charge. Thanks for your time looking forward to hearing from some people!

I use a Imax B6 mini by SkyRC beware there are many fakes out there that look just like it. A genuine one will run you in the $40 range.

Those weird battery connectors are gonna make it tough.

Is this what you have?

This is what my battery looks like. Has those plugs, but also a small white plug that goes into charger

Will any 3 pin charger work? It's a 7.4v battery

What does that mean????

The white plug that goes in the charger from my battery has 3 pins in it. Saw some postings listed as compatible with 3 pin plugs

Are you talking about the 2S balance plug?

Yes, mine has red, black, and white wires going into it. Not sure if that makes a difference

I guess something like this would work for charging 2 at a time..

Charge Current: 0.1 - 3.0A

That's decent.
