Default Newb needs some help/lipo

I am new to this again! I havnt touched an rc in 15 years and I just bought and Axial last night. It came with two 11.4 lipos and a bunch of upgrades. My questions is about charging the lipo batteries. I have an old tekin charger and I am sure it wont work but everything is closed today and I want to drive this damn thing.

School me on this new stuff!

Do not charge those lipos on that charger, you need a lipo specific, balancing charger! You will probably create a huge fire. Check out lipo fires on youtube.
