Well, I haven't used this setup, but I imagine your ESC's LVC will kick in when those NiMHs reach whatever voltage it "thinks" is low. I'm assuming you set your LVC? What V per cell cutoff did you use? The ESC will probably figure the 7 cell NiMH pack as 2s and the it will cut off at the same voltage as the 2s pack. So, lets say you set the 2s cutoff at 3v/cell, the 7 cell pack will cut off at 6v, which is 1.16v/cell.

Just run it and see how it does. You certainly won't hurt anything either way...
