TX Battery Polarity
Diode Protection
The Spektrum polarity is identical to JR. It is not like the others. Get a JR transmitter adapter if using an after-market charger.
A charger / cycler will work fine with this TX. There is NO "blocking diode".
This also means you will pop the fuse in the TX if you even come CLOSE to attempting a reverse-polarity connection. Fuse is a 3A, mini glass body fuse.
