A few words about LiPo Battery Safety – from U.S. Drone Soccer…

“Battery manufacturers report that inadvertent short circuits caused by abuse during handling are the largest single source of field failures for lithium batteries. Problems associated with shorting as well as other hazardous conditions can be reduced by observing the following guidelines:

Lithium batteries shall be stored and transported inside a flammables storage cabinet or fire-resistant container at all times.
Remove jewelry items such as rings, wristwatches, pendants, etc., that could come in contact with the battery terminals.
NEVER leave packages or pallets of batteries unattended where they can be damaged by personnel or vehicles.
Perform a safety inspection prior to every use.
Damaged batteries shall be disposed of immediately in the nearest Safety Can.”
