HELP with Hitex Aggressor Srx Tx

[rcflyer55]

I need help with my Hitex Aggressor Srx Tx. I put NiMH batts in it but I can not charge it with my charger. I think there must be a diod blocking it but I can't find it. Can someone post a pic of where it is and how to do it ?? PLEASE

My Schulze chargers will not charge HiTec radios because of this diode. They like to talk to the batteries and this diode prevents two-way communication between the charger and the battery. I found a small circuit board in the battery compartment, but I simply opted to use a wall-wart or a cheaper charger to do my charging in-the-field.

I like to cycle my batts during the winter and can't. I really don't want to remove them every month to do this. it's a PITA

Can't believe no one has ever wanted to do this before. Any suggestions as to where else to find the info??

I have the same problem with my Astro 110D. All I do is plug the charger into a "regular" NiMH pack for a few seconds until it recognizes the pack, the unplug the charger and re-plug it into the transmitter. This works great, but I don't know how well the charger will work to shut off the charge when the transmitter pack is full. Mine usually shuts off and I have never overheated the transmitter pack, but then I usually charge at pretty low rates.

Thanks Fluid, Maybe I can try that with my 112D, I'm trying to use my Alpha 4 but it gives me "open" because it needs to read the voltage. I've jumped ever Tx I own but can't find this diod. Even did a search on Google.
