I accidentally charged my spectrum dx6 Radio control transmitter with a 800mA battery charger. I was suppose to charge it with a 50mA battery charger. What damage did I do?

probably none if it was the correct voltage .. i wouldnt do it on a regular basis though ... it will make the battery overheat and shorten its life ..

More important is the voltage (pressure) used.
As long as that was the same, no harm to either.
Polarity is another important issue though.
You'd probably know right away if that was wrong (smoke).
If the current drawn exceeded the charger (more smoke).
If the voltage was too low, no charge.

Maybe none but it could burn up the battery. Try it and see if it works, if so you're ok.
