leaving packs uncharged.

[buster1]

Regarding packs that have been flown,

Is it always necessary to recharge within a period of time?

I am aware, that we can't fly the packs down below approximately 20% left of capacity, but if we take care to fly within battery parameters, can I leave the packs uncharged and just sitting. Sometimes I don't get a chance to recharge right away.

Or is it best to always have the packs charged at 100%,
Thanks,
JH

Depends how long your not going to fly for, if it's week or two then charge them and leave them charge for long term storage then they should be charged to about 40-50%.

Storage temp is also important. I always store mine in the basement where it is always cool. ~60F
