As a rule of thumb if the swelling goes past the ridges on the bottom or comes very close shut it down.
But as of right now your good to go, , you may consider getting a strap or use our Battery Covers to protect and seal the battery on every flight.

The risk is a relatively sudden failure in flight. I had one go from 100% to like 4-5% in less than 30 seconds after TO. The battery had looked normal until after the flight. A bulge is a bulge!

I had a battery like that too.
I flew it some very close and after those flights
Checked my air data flights data..
Air data clearly showed faulty battery..
Be very careful

If your battery swells too much, it will force the battery to eject from the drone and you will lose your drone to a crash. Happened to me over water.
M2Z & M2P much more likely to fail this way.
Original Mavic Pro batteries have more room for expansion.

If you feel that you have to strap it in for insurance, I would not fly it.

If its swelling, I would not fly using it. Your taking a great risk with your drone to suddenly drop out of the Sky. Also, a safety risk.
