Well listening for the RoF to drop wouldn't work for me...I'm a semi only guy. But I know you aren't suppose to drain them super low. I'll buy one of those buzzers for $5 off Ebay 8)

Just make sure when you notice a significant drop in RoF you change batteries.
Just buy a $3 battery alarm and blast away till you hear the buzzer!

Trevor, you may want to consider at least a basic Mosfet if you are getting a 20C 11.1v LiPo. Otherwise your trigger contacts will burn out eventually.
