Can you charge battery and remote at same time?

Negative, not good on the charger.

Thanks! What about those block chargers for 4 batteries?

You still can only charge battery (batteries) even with the charging hub,  OR the Remote Control.
DJI says in the manual and the literature that comes with the batteries, you should not charge both the battery (batteries) AND the RC at the same time.

Once charged, your remote battery  is good for  multiple Phantom flights,  

Aloha Jack,

     The battery hub also charges only one battery at a time.  It calculates the battery with the highest charge and starts with that one.  When done, it goes on to the battery with the next highest charge - and so on.  Ultimately, if you need to fly real soon and have started charging the batteries, the first done will have been the fastest.  

     BTW, on that note of fast battery charging - you absolutely have to wait until the battery cools down before you charge it. - you can burn out the battery computer and blow a cell if you rush and start charging a battery while it is hot.

     The RC battery lasts a very long time and the lights next to the on / off switch indicate how much charge it has.  Going through three or four batteries on the hub with low, 25 percent, charge can take as long as charging the RC battery with one or two lights out.  My device takes forever to charge, so I put it on while I am charging the RC or the batteries.  Sometimes it goes through both chargings!

Aloha and Drone On!

Actually, I seriously doubt that you would burn out the chip. But you are correct, it is not wise to fast charge a hot battery.
