Is it possible to charge the CJ battery without removing it from the aircraft?

If so, is it possible to do it via the ground power receptacle?

... and if anyone has the same answer for the Yak-52, that would also be useful. Thanks.

Hi there,

I can't speak for the CJ, but on the Yak.... No.

The aircraft can take power from the Battery OR the ground power socket. this would imply that you can't poke power back the other way from the ground power socket to the battery.

You could possibly put a separate charging plug hot wired to the battery, but for my money I would just drop the hatch and connect directly to the battery. I get nervous charging batteries in situ.... better have them where you can see them and with a bit of ventilation. I know they are charged in the air in their enclosure, but with a system designed for that purpose. I have seen the results of an overcharged battery on a charger and believe me when I tell you that you would want that as far away from your plane as possible!

My two cents,
Chris
