Question: How do you know if a servo is rated for 4.8V or 6.0V ??? Just because they show the Torque for 6v input for a particular Servo does not mean it is rated for 6v use...So how do we know? I find that very misleading.
Servos that show a 6V rating are rated for 6V
Look up tail rotor servos like the 9253 and 9254, both are damaged by excessive heat caused by the high frame rate from a gyro combined with higher than a 4 cell pack, you'll see they only rate the torque and speed for 4.8v
