I did a quick search but didn't find an answer...

What actions constitute a discharge cycle count?

Just as an example, I fully charge battery, fly it to %25, let it cool, and charge to a little over %50 and store it. How many times will it take for this to count as a discharge cycle?

I suspect there is some sort of formula involved? I have three batteries and don't fly a lot. Should I use one battery down to a low charge percentage or I could use three batteries down to %50 (or some other value) each.

Thanks!

Edited to add: Evo 2 in case this makes a difference.
 
IMHO, what you have described above would be one charge/discharge cycle... and in that scenario, assuming your battery was at storage voltage before charging. I would count each time you put the battery back to storage level, as the completion of one cycle.

If in fact, you are flying so often that you do not place your batteries in a storage mode, I would say that the discharging of your battery would then be the benchmark for cycle completion.
