There's been big discussion here about those. On one hand, they *should* match the voltage and amperage of a usb, but on the other hand, there's been a fair number of people who have said it's done terrible things to their batteries. Personally, for something like a laptop cooling fan, or other usb powered device that's not critical to have exact voltage, go for it. But for anything critical, either get a good name-brand one from a store that you know will take it back if something goes wrong, (Or that you can at least complain to) or don't use it at all.

My s32 didn't come with a wall adapter. Is it advisable to use one of my phone USB/wall plug adapters to charge the battery?

OK,seems a long time, but guess depends how much you depleted your battery, try not to kill it by over flying on one battery---

I bought this and it came with just the usb charger, no wall plug adapter.

 

I plug the usb into my computer and the big part glows red. As soon as I plug into the helicopter, the light turns off. I kept it plugged in for 70 min and I cant tell if its done charging. I assumed the light would turn back on when its done charging, but still nothing and I dont want to risk overcharging it. 

 

Is there anyway to tell when it is fully charged since I dont have a wall plug with an indicator light?

Mine came with a wall charger and switches off after fully charged.

Also, whats with the beginner and advanced mode buttons? I clicked it from L to H and there was no difference in speed, maneuverability and acceleration.
