Check the instruction sheet that came with the novak rooster. It has two modes, one for Nicad / Nimh and a second mode for Lipo. In Lipo mode there is a low voltage cut off.

I've been running 3S 2200mAH with an external BEC without issue. Works very well.

Is there any difference if I have two motors and one Novak Rooster esc ?
Do I have to have two lipo batteries if I have two motors?

Just out of curiosity, how are you running two motors on your Creeper?
