The battery will have no problem; however the servo will only recieve the 6 volts that the battery can provide so you will have a bit les torque and speed from the servo.

The ampacity is not the problem it is the voltage. The 3300 will be fine as well but the speed and torque will be reduced. Do you have a link for this servo? Are you considering the new hitec robot servo?

Most servos and receivers will only handle 6 volts max. You can use a 7.2 volt pack but you will have to put a voltage regulator in to reduce the volt to 6 volts. Their are servos that can handle more volts 6+12 volts but those are special application servos ans they are expensive.

I Guess you want to use the HRS 5995 tg robot servo. I would suggest not. You will need the programmer to limit the travel of the servo and a radio with EPA set to 0. This servo is designed for special applications only. If you want more torque then I would use the hs 805 or the hs5745 servo or any other 1/4 scale specific servo. The other tg servos are for 1/8 scale.
