Default Problem with various AE ESC's and Lipo cutoff.

In a nutshell it either doesn't work or isn't reliable. Twice today I had packs where the voltage had fallen below 10v on 3 cell, one at 6V!!!!!!!! and the ESC never shutdown. If I didn't have good cells it would have ruined my packs or caused a fire. 1 of my cells was at 2.5!!!!! I had a balance buzzer on that beeps when the cells get low but it fell off and I didn't realize it and kept driving.

Has anyone else had this problem? The ESC's in question are the 500 and 700 Associated brushless ones. I'm new to Lipo and am still learning in some ways.
