Lipos need to be balanced and the voltage in the cells cannot, under any circumstances, be allowed to drop below 3.3v or damage can occur. Most smart chargers will refuse to charge batteries that have a cell below that voltage. You cannot over discharge lipos. Once you notice your rate of fire drop - stop, drop, and roll in another battery because your lipo is almost discharged to the danger point.
When charging lipos, always make sure you have a balancer charger as the cells need to be balanced with each other. Also, expensive higher end chargers have a lipo-storage mode because lipos are not good to be stored at full charge or discharged state. These chargers put the lipos in the optimal mode for storage.
I would get a lipo-safe bag for lipos, and transport lipos in a hard shell case with padding. You can't just throw lipos around or carry them in pockets. R/C enthusiasts have reported lipos being scratched or bumped on keys in pockets getting damaged. Also, never get them wet.
