Default The 6 Volt Queston

I'm guessing this has been covered ad nauseum, but I'm going to ask anyway. Will a 6 volt rx pack do any harm to a fairly recent (8 year old Futaba 7UAF) and standard servos? I know that at 6 volts the pack will drain faster so it is a good idea to increase pack capacity. I'm just worried about frying my rx and/or servos.
Thanks!

My understanding is that virtually all RX and servos will work fine on 6.0 volts. There are reports of jitters when the RX is powered on directly after a charge (when the 6.0 pack is putting out 7.x volts for a few minutes).
