When I select 200mah it automatically wants to charge at a 2.0 amp rate. I can change this but my question is should I and if so to what?

Bill you say that your charging yours at .8 amp? or is that 8.0 amps?

Thanks again for any help provided..

Just charge at 200mah setting to be safe. You will have plenty of capacity for 8 mins. I only pull 70mah for 8 mins racing and 1 min warm-up.

I charge at .4 amps. Which is quicker than my 1s lipo will charge. It's easily charged before the motor to cools down, if you are running to multiple lipos.
