i thought this had already been discussed once,
you dont ever need to discharge a lipo,drive them and put them away with whats in them,top up and run,

As discussed on Saturday night just do what bigred says, charge and race, then charge and race again, then take it home and forget about it.

Never need to discharge, not like nicads.

Main thing with lipos is never let them get below or anywhere near 6 volts or they will die a rapid death !
