Default RE: Aurora 9 with Optima Rx Brown out Q&A - Rx 4 or 5cell??

LiFe pack on the Rx's Ch9/Batt post? I'll assume going thru a external BEC first, else you'll possibly blow your servos with 7.2v?

So a fellow RC guy recommended that I use a lipo -> BEC set to 6v. I suppose I could try it and see. I'm skeptical of this working since Experiment #1 has shown the NIMH pack didn't sag below 5.78v. The drop was at the SPC in my findings...
