ok, my recharger on my controller started to not charge at full strength as it usually did. I tested to see if it was my bit, but it wasnt. so i did the recharger mod. that was on QFM and it still doesnt charger right....... any explanations? or is it just screwed up......:(

Have you tried replacing the cell in your BC-G?

actually, i have. And i did a few tests with my friends recharger and mine. I put my Bit on his recharger, my bit charged at full strength. I put his Bit on my recharger, it didnt charger at full strength. Then, I just mixed between his and mine. I did this about 3 times. (i made sure i drained the batteries on both Bits to see how long each battery lasted.) There was two things wrong with the test though, and i think it couldve played A BIG role in this test. His was a 3.0 engine and mine was a 3.8, and his was an American Bit while mine was the Project D Bit.......
Either way, HIS charger always charged at full strength.


*whew* hope you got all that.......

Hows the battery inside the controller? I think that might be the problem. Otherwise, i dont think theres any other explanation.
