A Very General Battery Question

[WithTheBirds]

I believe my batteries are getting a balanced usage. Thank you very much for your most valued input.

If you use one battery exclusively for set up and the others for flying they aren’t getting balanced usage. That is a demonstrable fact.

Ok, thank you! I will immediately not change the way I do it!

Who said you might change anything? Other people read these threads also and some have an interest in getting the most from their equipment.

Your going to do what you feel comfortable with and there is no problem with that. You have a few Drones so I guess you have quite a bit of experience. If it was me though, I would fly with the battery I used for set up. With 90% to 94% you are still going to have at about 15 minutes in the air. As has already been said, it is not a good idea to keep a battery with a full charge all the time. I don't charge when the battery is above 30%. Usually the only Camera set up I do is putting on a ND Filter. I have my Camera in Manual with a Custom White Balance that I keep the same and only need to change ND Filters. My videos look great.
