I do not know the science behind it.
What I gather from my experience and that of other posters is the following:
Charge a healthy battery to 100%, then fly one of the following two missions:
- Fly continuously until your critical low battery warning message appears, then land.
- Fly until you are roughly at about 50% battery; land and wait a number pf certain minutes*; take off and fly until your critical low battery warning message appears, then land.
With mission #1, you are not likely to have any battery problems. With mission #2, you are taking the chance of a cell failure, in which case your bird will drop from the sky and crash.
Perhaps someone else can explain the science behind the battery behavior.
* The number of minutes is a variable that I cannot define. For me, it was about 10 minutes. For the some others I've seen posted, it was about 20 minutes. I've read DJI employees here mention flying on a partially spent battery the next day, so several hours in that case.
