Default LiPo voltages

I'm really getting confused with all this battery voltages and capacity etc. The more I read the more confusing it becomes..
I am trying to set up my transmitter with my truggy, and the transmitter has an alarm for receiver battery voltage, it has MAX volt and alert volt. The battery is 2s LiPo, could someone please help me with the voltages I need to input.

MAX would be around 8.4v right? And the minimum voltage i would want to be alerted at (allowing time to bring her back and turn off etc.) would be around 6 volts?

Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks

Low alarm should be set to 6.4v (3.2v per cell)

I second that. A range of 3.2-3.4 is where most set it.


Though most truggies run on 4s, not 2s batteries.
