last year I purchased a 1.60 size plane that came with a 6v noobs brand new rx battery. After charging, I believe the volts were up in the 7's and I always saw twitching in the servos till I got some flights in and the pack lost some volts. well I only got to charge the battery a few times before the plane went in. it was right in front of me hanging it and I just finished charging the battery. everything locked up and turned nose down and went in at 1/2 throttle. not pretty. I always use a reg. of some sort now. I even use the same rx that was in the plane that went in. no problems. I run JR and the receiver was a 770. anybody else notice any problems when just using a 6v battery. seems like a lot of people are using them. that incident just freaked me out, I've never had a problem with my radio before till I used the battery.

the 770 should handle the voltage just fine....

most Rx's can handle much higher voltage...

which servos?

5945's in the rear and jr 125's in the ailerons. I think the throttle was a 55.

been running regulated and unregulated 6V packs for 10+ years without incident.

ive been using 6 volts on my 770 for 4 months or so and have about 40 flights on my edge and no probs.

I guess I must of had a bad component somewhere that didn't like the fully charged 6v battery.

I've been using 6v packs for quite some time and in conjunction with Hitec servo's. Occasionally I'll see the jitters from a newly charged pack but after letting the plane sit a few with the switches on, it all settles down. Now if you had a marginal servo, this is definately the way to find it! Sorry for your loss. I believe in the KISS principal. Keep It Simple Stupid! The more you enter in the electrical equation, the more can go wrong. I try not to use matchboxes, regs, Y's, amp's (...etc) if at all possible. Use a 6v pack and burn in new servo's. They typically go bad within the first 10 hrs if they are defective.
