Default RE: Do I need a larger capacity battery for my Rx.

When we talk about increased operating temps on servos and Rx's or increased power draw, isn't all these just marginal technicalities at best, plus if the units are rated by the manufacturer for 6.0 volts there should be no problem. Has it been documented anywhere that systems run at 4.8 volts last longer or perform better than those run at 6.0 volts. It seems to me to be almost a case of dammed if you do and dammed if you don't, so I guess it's left up to the end user to decide. Whichever of the two is used, it's quite obvious that good judgement and common sense should prevail.
