How to connect a RC Charger to iPhone 4 batteries?

Text:

Hello guys,

I am attempting to built a charging/disscharging/testing system for iPhone batteries. Because I have a lot of aged and water damaged ones...

Should this setup work?

The RC Charger confirms that it is a single cell with 3,7V. But after 20 seconds it says the battery is full.

Did I wire it correctly? Can someone confirm?

Thanks for your time! :)
