		The Sparrow is now charging with 4 of the simple voltage regulators on the 4 batteries which consistently reach full charge before the rest of the pack.
		I also believe that the next generation Sparrow will be MUCH better in many areas based on the feedback and experience generated by the Sparrow I. I keep in touch with the factory and I hope some of my suggestions will be implemented in the next model.
