What charge rate can I charge tornado 7.2v 3300 on using a NX86 fast charger? 0.5 -5.0 Amp, many thanks

Can I just check as to whether a remote control is included with this set? Also I currently have a Grasshopper and I assume the battery packs are the same size?
Asked by Louis Petherick on 1st November 2019

Yes this model is pre assembled and includes radio gear. And yes, if they are standard stick packs (very very likely!) then yes - those should fit fine.
