My test shows that one cell accepts 10-20% less
mAh than the other two cells when charging before
reaching 4.2 volts and tapering off to near zero current.

It also give that much less back before reaching cut off
voltage, and that the voltage drops off quicker.

For a slow charge (less than .5C) and slow discharge
(5-10C gentle flying) the energy stored is 10% less
than the other cells. For a standard 1C charge and
regular discharge (aerobatic flying, about 10-20C)
it is down about 20%.
