Measure the current draw in a typical flight and multiple it by N. Make sure the total is less then 50% of the battery capacity. N is the number of flights u can have before recharge.

No guess work is necessary this way.
Question....what if you do not have a way to measure the current drawn by a typical flight?????
My five year old Triton charger can show the mah put back. Many modern chargers will have the same feature. So invest in one. Why do you want to estimate something that you can precisely measure?
