Jim,
A short in any ser o power wires will kill the system regardles, I have seen it with sohrting servos 8711, it was due to impropper installation, but seen it twice.
Hi Brenner,
I do understand your setup, you will take advantave of the BEC and that will maintain the 8.4V, but I have not been able to confirm the voltage, but let's suppose someone uses a 3000mAh Rx batt, that on an F3A model will probably hold the 8.4 or 8.2 at least for about 4 flights, so we could assume, that they should be able to support it no problem, is the Rx overheating if wrapped in foam for example, I mean certain colling precautions should be maximized. Anyway, the Japanese page say they are designed for 2S LiPo, so you should be ok no matter what.
regards
