So with that being said here I have a 2000+mah NiMH pack and I run it for say 50 minutes and I am down to 9.6V and back on the charger it goes. At the end of the charge it has received about 450-550 mah of juice. The other day I decided to cycle the battery and see what happened. On the 1st cycle it only put in 500 mah, on the 2nd cycle it removed and then put in 1000mah. Are you guys telling me that I should let my Tx go below 9V? Am I causing memory in a NiMH battery? Whats the minimum safe voltage? Is it normal for the battery to quickly drop to say 9.8V and then slowly fall off from there? I always have been told that 9.6V was about minimum from the old timers and just sortof took them at face value not really taking the time to learn this for myself which is actually a little out of character for me.

Teach me something here.
This has already been discussed extensively in the thread. You can fly at 9.6V and past that. Read the thread and all will be revealed to you.
