Muggy, When you get the poll information maybe you could run another on battery . . . stress? Not sure what to call it. Some fly until the battery goes flat, then they land and recharge.

I fly a fixed length of time. I don't know how long the cell will fly, but I shut off at 5 minutes. That way I'm sure that I never over stress the cells. The cells don't care if they are not discharged to the limit as they have no memory. And when I just pull 5 minutes out of them, they recharge quickly. Anyhow, I think that I am doing a good thing to preserve the cells, but I really don't know. More thoughts are welcome.
For what it's worth, both the Tenergy and the stock cells run the 5 minutes just fine. I'll guess that the Tenergy has more reserve at 5 minutes. I use Tenergy because my LHS stocks them and they are cheaper than OEM cells.
