just scored on of these

i have tried to charge my zzmt crawler a few times but it is taking me 20+ min to charge.

i need help on setting this thing up, it has too many features! i currently have it set as a 200mah batt and a .2a charge rate, is this good or should i go up on charge rate? i am too used to charge it until its warm method :)

Sweet score!

I see you got the temp probe included in the batch, in that case why don't you step-up the charge rate (to say 750ma) and throw the probe on there with a cutoff temp at like 110 (or whatever the max temp rating recommendation is).
