Default RE: How do you check flight batteries?

You need a load on the batteries to get a true reading of the voltage available. Without the load you will get a false reading that is actually more than you actually have. A cheap expanded scale voltmeter is available at hobbie shops. Best insurance there is. The scale will tell you when it is time to recharge.
