lipo batteries should be stored at about 3,8 v or a bit higher, but not fully charged for longer time. the higher voltage stresses the cells. that's why they ship new lipos with about 3,8 v (each cell). you can store the batteries at 4,2 for a week or two, but not for months. that's bad for the performance.
