I've got a Tattu 1550mAh 4s, 2 Turnigy 1500mAh 3s and 1 Multistar 1400mAh 4s battery that have all decreased their maximum capacity per cell in the last few weeks alone.
They all used to hold 4.19-4.21 per cell. Now all of them are between 4.15-4.17.
All of them have been used maybe 3-5 times a week for about 4 months.
I did leave them all fully charged for probably 2 weeks without use, and I have also changed my PIDs and Rates and started flying much more aggressively in those last 2 weeks.
Would either of those cause this?
What's the best practice for charging/discharging? How long is too long to leave a battery fully charged?
I just purchased 3 new batteries and I'd love to make these last.
