Default Charging time

Hey everyone

Ive recently bought a Hpi vorza flux which is my first RC car i'll use lipos with.

Ive bought 2 4200mAh 40c 7.4V 2S lipo batteries and a imaX B6 duo charger

On the first time i charged it, it took 55 minutes to charge and then i ran the car for about 10 minutes not full throttle either

Now ive just tried to charge it and its 110 minutes and still charging... is this normal???

my settings on the charger are as follows

Lipo charge: 4.0Amps 2S
Lipo discharge: 2.0A 6.0V (2S)
Lipo Storage: 0.1A 7.4V (2S)
Lipo Fast Charge 0.1A 7.4V (2S)
Lipo Balance: 4.0A 7.4V (2S)


Can anybody tell me if those settings are correct as i'm new to lipos
