George, here is a copy of the letter from owerBox I got. It says the basic same thing as you have said
Hello Steve,
Yes, I can confirm, that this receiver 6014 will work with the most of our PowerBoxes. The newest, from the last 3 years, can handle the voltage up from 2,5 volts. The PowerBoxes with RRS inside or the RRS module can all pulse handle up from 1,0 volts, so in your case, the PowerBox Royal and 2 of this receivers are a very perfect setup. In big planes with long servos leads, if there are HiTec servos in the plane, or other electronic items what need 3,0 volts input, is the PB Royal absolutely necessary, because when you connect this electronic items on the PowerBox, then they get a pulse voltage of minimum 4.5 - 5,0 volts, so they will work all very fine.
If it is an older PowerBox and doesn´t function on the 6014, then we update it, also not a problem.
When the Box work on the receiver then it is o.k., we have made some tests with all PowerBoxes, special with a heat over 50 degrees, because some of our customers ask us, what happens over 50 degrees, and we can say, that it is the same when the Box work by 20 degrees, then it also work by 50 degrees, for example, when it was by 20° 2,62 Volts, then it was by 50 ° not much more, mostly 2,63 or 2,64 volts. We think that the electronic parts what we give in our boxes they are all designed for 150 degrees ( MIL specification), and we have all our PowerBox with gold plates, so it does nothing when the temperature is a little higher.
We can say when the Box will work then it is the newer version, not older then 3 years, and it will work with this receiver.
Thank you for your interest, if you has any question ask me please.
kind regards / mit freundlichen Grüßen

Hello friend,[8D] you are not correct,
please look into all manuals of the original PowerBoxes, not coppies as the smartflys,
all original PowerBoxes have puls amplifiers inside for each channel and the signal voltage is always constant 5,0 volt,
if the Futaba 6014 have only 2,7 volts on the signal, then helps also the original PowerBox, the signal is 5,0 volts output and all electronic parts, servos, electronic valves, ECU will work on a PowerBox!
If you have problems with the servos on the Futaba 6014 then take a PowerBox and all works fine.
Hi George. Thanks for the update to my post. George I was not able to find the "signal pulse output voltage" value in my paper work. But if you say you have read this yourself then that is great news. All I was able to find was the "power voltage" to the servos which in my case is 5.9v per channel. And as you say all will work fine. Again than you for your correction to my post.
Steve
