You should DEFINITELY throw at least a little bit of a charge in there before shelfing.
Lipos will hold a charge FAR longer vs. nimh. Even so, they still do dissipate over time. But where nimh can just be put through a few charge cycles to revive a battery that's gotten very low...If a Lipo drops below 3.0v (sometimes just a tiny bit lower, like 2.7v at about absolute lowest), they're pretty much TOAST.
The nice thing about the Tx charger (if you haven't already noticed) is that it's got an auto-off feature. So you can just plug the heli in to be charged, then go off about your business. The charger automatically stops when the heli is done charging AND the Tx itself shuts off after just a few minutes after that! Nice feature!
