Great question! That seems would have saved me a cou0ple of batteries already. Where would one get such a thing?

But aircraft ESCs have a built-in Low Voltage cut-off (LVC) so that in normal in-flight use one cannot discharge Lipos to below ~3.2v/cell.
sorry,
I'm a newbie to elect airplanes, are these programable typically depending on the pack size?
These work instead of a BEC or just basically a BEC with a different set voltage point?

edit:
found my own answer, some new ESCs detect type and cell count,,, what will they think of next?
