Understand the principle of waiting initially before flying off to make sure main battery does not go into charging mode. But does this ever happen mid-flight and if it did, would the drone continue to fly on the axillary battery or with the FW shut things down because it's not a genuine DJI battery.

Yes, it could happen in flight. Usually right at the beginning of the flight, but it can happen. The situation is that the aircraft will remain powered on and inflight, but the power will be driven by the externals as the internal battery will go into charge mode. This will remain until the battery is charged, in which case it will simply turn off. The externals will still power the aircraft, but you will lose all video and telemetry (no battery % reading, no voltage, no distance, no speed info). You will stay in the air, but will be flying blind. The DJI battery will not turn itself on.
