Default Fromeco and Weatronic

Hi guys!
I have recently switched to Fromeco Relion packs in my SM F-16 1:6, a 5200 MaH pack as the main battery and a
2700 MaH pack as backup. Yesterday, I spoke with one of my jet friends here and he warned me that if pulling a lot
of amps the Fromeco (or any LiIo) packs will drop the volt below Weatronics cutoff values and I would have a lockout.

I have heard that this can happen with big 3D prop models with a lot of servos, I fly the F-16 with 3 servos only, and
I fly the FB Panther with the same packs and 5 servos - ailerons, elevators and rudder. Does anyone have any
experience with the Fromeco batteries/Weatronic or any other receiver and a battery management system?

Thanks,
Tor
