JR tx charging sockets are negative centre post, which is the reverse of normal, connect a normal charger and its a problem .There is probably a fuse as mentioned before .Have a look in the battery compartment , if its not there take the back off

The 30% Toni Clark Tiger I used to own flew just right on a Zenoah 38 turning a 22 x 6 prop -
Take a sharp Stanley knife, put the tube on the bench ,then put the blade on the tube at 90 degrees to the tube ,then roll the tube back and forward using the knife to power the roll .It takes practice to keep the blade on the right place

My choice for a follow on is the acrowot .Its easy to fly and especially easy to land and will do aerobatics well
-
I sold Bert the tiger because my knackered back wouldn’t cope with big models any more .I flew it for years on a zenoah 38 and it was great .The prop was scale size (22 6 ) It flew scale like in most conditions .It was a bit tricky in a force 5 wind though .

You can use an old fridge compressor (backwards) for vac bagging as well .The Edward’s pump would be a bit powerful

The original gangster 63 was great on an os 61 rf pumper its vertical performance was off the scale .If I did one today I would go for an os 91 surpass. I did modify the model to a tail dragger to accommodate the tuned pipe for the rf pumper

I nag all my students to level the wings ,so they hopefully do that before anything else when in trouble .If the wings are level the model can be recovered safely
