OK, The correct answer is 50% of the batteries capacity. As "Gary Sevin" stated, 3.80 - 3.85 v per cell is about right. But I find so much conflicting information on the web about discharging lipo batteries. My question (not to steal the purpose of this post), When do you need to disharge a battery? I typically fly about 1 - 3 times per month. when I am done flying, I will charge my batteries up to full voltage and store them in an Amo box in the garage until I am ready to fly. Is that wrong? I could see discharging for safe tansport, or discharging for long storage like a few months over the winter. But I dont think storing a full charged battery for a few weeks is a bat thing? Seems like I would wear the battery out instead of prolong the life by constantly discharging my batteries.
