Max Permissible Rx Voltage?
Bax,
I'm flying the 6 channel FASST with S3152 servos and 5-cell Nimx 6-volt airborne battery. On a fresh charge, the battery voltage is 7.2 volts and drops down into the 6.5 volt range after 2 or 3 flights. My question is: Should I have any concern about this voltage shortening the servo life? What is the maximum permissible voltage for the FAAST receiver?
Regards
J.C.

RE: Max Permissible Rx Voltage?
If a servo's rating is good for "6V", that means a 5-cell battery pack, and you won't hurt the servo if the battery pack is "hot" off the charger, when the voltage can be over 7V.
Receivers will work OK with this because they have their own voltage regulator for their chips and internal circuits.
