NiCads and NiMH batteries can and will develop mAh capacities based on their discharge/charge amounts. NiCads are the worst about this and NiMH aren't as bad...but they will develop a memory, too.
!
First I ever heard of the NMH having memory problems.
On every pack I buy it states the advantage of not having the memory problem of Ni-Cads.
mah capacities yes but memory NO.
I don't know of any ham radio Op in my area that has any of the fancy gear to recycle batteries but most of us now have NMH.
I guess in RC you don't want to take a chance but there are many RC flyers who just drain the battery with a resistor or a few Auto # 1157 bulbs
