how do you go about charging your react. has anyone bought a charger jack adapter and used the plug. or do you just plug it into the usb
I charge thru the adapter port once in a while but usually I just go directly to the battery and charge it on my peak charger. Don't waste your time with the USB charge it's worthless.
If you have the stock battery you need to rig up a charger link because of the plug style.

Like ponch said, charging by the usb is terrible.
it uses a futaba plug correct. i could buy the adapter and plug it into my charger
Futaba 60" Transmitter Charge Cord

could i buy that and plug it into my charger to charge my react
I'd be sure to check the polarity of the plug first. Make sure your + and - are not switched up.
I dont leave the batteries plugged in between weekends and charge with a regular battery plug on my ice charger.

thanks for the input. ill remember to unplug it. what type of connector is on the plug for the battery.
JST the stock plug is a weird varient
On the plug above I removed the pin shield so the 2 male pins are exposed. Double check the polarity if your charger does not.

cool thanks. i cant wait to get my radio
nothing in regards to charging, but is everyone running there antenna external? it wont fit any antenna tubes I have, so I'm assuming no???
I either just leave it in the radio box (safest) or I will run it down the side of the mudgard on my buggy (more risky).
ok cool.......thanks Ponch Wink
