Incorrect calculation of battery capacity.
I'm fairly new to Inav, so this is probably due to pilot error, or a misunderstanding on my part...
I'm trying to figure out how it determines the reported battery level. It always starts off reporting something like 70% even with a freshly charged battery at 16.8V (4.2V/cell), and reports the battery being down to "critical level" (less than 10%) when it is barely below 15V.
I've tried adjusting the battery capacity through the configuration screen, but even when I lie and tell it that I have a much larger battery capacity than I really have, it doesn't seem to make much difference. Is there some other setting that I'm missing?
Maybe this is documented somewhere. If so, a pointer to the documentation would be helpful because I could not find anything in a search.

I'm aware of that configuration page. (I mentioned in my original question that I've experimented with changing values for battery capacity - both providing the correct value as well as artificially high values - but it doesn't seem to produce the expected results.) Are there other configuration values I should try changing?
I had the same issue , i solved it after reading the document above, the following resolved the issue:
In INAV CLI (ignore for TBS Crossfire) set smartport_fuel_unit = percent set report_cell_voltage = OFF (if set to ON Lua Telemetry can't show total battery voltage)
