Hi Guys,

As you can probably tell I'm a newbie - Ive been around the forums a while (gleaning knowledge before my first purchase)
Any how Ive just got my first FG Touring car :)

Ive got two questions for your guys:

1: What FG is it? It looks like an Evo from some respects and from a comp car in others......
Can you take a look at the pics and let me know your thoughts...

It was advertised as a "touring car" and came with a Vauxhall Astra Shell.

2: it didnt come with a charger for the onboard battery! How the hell do I charge it? I have one of these: http://www.centuryuk.com/Products/Chargers?pos=5

But what settings do I use?
The pack says charge for 7hrs /500mA - but charge at what rate?

Also the charging plug connector seems different to most other FG's - (certainly the MT and Marder).

All advice welcome!

Many thanks

The charger you have is for lipos mate, no good for nicads .... need a new charger.

Your car looks like a FG sports line with up grades...

Up date your loction so you get better help...
 
the battery connection is an FG part as this is a more reliable connection than a switch when proper :Dracing...all you need a converter cable
from this fg to a tamiya style connector
you can make out the same battery connector on my touring car
