OK, when a manufacturer does NOT give a 6V value for certain servos--are they saying actually no or not recommended to a <EM>regulated</EM> 6V or to a fully charged 5 cell nicad pack(and its higher voltage)?<BR>

<DIV>The reason for the 5.1 volt value was to replicate a fully charged four cell NiCd pack. That was the highest recommended for some servos like the Futaba 9402. The 5.7 volt value was the highest value one could regulate to with a five cell pack that was discharged to 5.9 volts. When the Lithium cells came out we went to 6.0 volts to get the highest safe operating voltage and the lowest heat dissipation as stated. I'm guessing one could go higher than 6.0 if he was very careful not to load the servo too much for too long but why take a chance with $100 plus servos.</DIV>

<DIV>By the way, for all you folks running without regulators, only add one if you want to improve your flying. </DIV>
