I would fully charge them every 3 months if not using them.

It would be a good idea to charge them every 6 weeks. DJI batteries have a self discharge that will over time slowly take the voltage down to a storage level which is approximately 3.8V per cell and they should stay at this level safely for an extended period. I believe if you were not to occasionally charge them that they could eventually go bad.
