Idle Batteries
Just finished fully charging all my 7.4 2 cell 6600 mAH batteries for this weekend and now going to be rained out . Won't be able to race again for 4 weeks.
Should I discharge to half or will they be safe setting at full charge for this period of time?

Yes, discharge them to storage, or at least somewhere close. Most anywhere in the middle range is better than full from what I've seen.

Perform a storage charge on them Most chargers have this type of charge setting built in.

Do NOT leave them fully charged that long.
