Can anyone tell me if the Mavis battery must be 100% charged before flight? What if toy fly a bit and land but do not turn it off and then take off again, I presume that is ok? However, is it like the Inspire and should only ever be started up at 100%. Also what about recalibrating the batteries like the Inspire, no one talks about that!
 
They don't need to be at 100%. They _should_ be but it's not required. The problem is, the percentage is a guess by the software. You should really be watching the voltage under load. Because the percentage is a guess, you don't want to think something like 45% is good enough to run down to 30%. However, you should be fine with something like 90% or 75% just to give some examples.

Calibration is batteries is talked about often. You no longer need to do it.
