I have 3 blue lipos 5000mah 5s and charge them at 2c rate or 9 amps. Technically they can be charged at 10 amps but I always charge on the conservative side.

From what I know about all the li-po's you mentioned, as long as they are the newer batts, they all can be charged at more than 1c. Some of the older turnigy can only be done at 1c rate. The turnigy's list the charge rate at Hobby king's website. My blue li-po's have the rating right on the batt.
