Thanks folks, think i'll have to get rid of the transmitter/receiver. Shame really as it is in supper condition.
The reason I ask about the cells, is my Uncle is an electrical engineer by trade, and although not a model enthusiast, he belives NIMH cells can be left any length of time as the don't suffer from cell memory problems like NICADs, He also seemed to think that slow low ampage trickle peak charging would seem to better preserve the cells life span. He also said they would hold there charge to quite a high degree. i.e if I charged them the night before a race day , they would still be 98-99% fine? Don't wanna be shelling out 40 quid a set every couple of months if fast chargers are gonna damage them!
Any battery experts here?
Yeah will be looking at club level racing, gonna be pretty ropey at it though.
