A conventional servo motor has a steel core armature wrapped with with wire that spins inside the magnets. In a coreless design, the armature uses a thin wire mesh that forms a cup that spins around the outside of the magnet eliminating the heavy steel core. This design is much lighter resulting in smoother operation and faster response time.

Dube, I guess you haven't read about that charger.
Unless they changed it's design, it is not good to use the AC to charge 6s batteries. The power supply is just not up to the task and it will get REALLY HOT!
It's much safer to use DC (battery or 12v-13.8v power supply).
Also, those chargers are only 50 watts, so 2 amps or so of charge current is all that you will see. That battery can charge at 5 amps safely.
Sorry to be the bearer of sad news.

That said, I can't wait to hear about how you like the Swift!!

I use an AC charger for 6S but you don't want to charge more than two packs in a row.
Most of the time I have one charging on AC and one on DC.

agent. this is the new charger, and it does charge at 5amps for a 6cell. my Batt was defected, but my mentor Dustin had one, and it works just fine, gets a little warm. but not bad at all he said thats the normal for this charger. so now i just wait for the new Batt  |
