I have the new rex 600 i was wondering i can run s9252 for cyclic on 6volts? Will the bec witch has an 5.9 volt out put work for these servos or will i fry the servos? or do i have to get 6volt regulators for theses servos?

Tower says: Power Supply: 4.8V (Futaba does not recommend using 6V)
However I wonder, a 4.8 volt/4 cell NiCd/NiMh pack can deliver quite a bit more freshly charged. Do they mean they don't recommend using a 6V/5 cell rx pack.
I use 5.8 volts for the servos (9252's) thru the Fromeco/Arizona reg in my Titan which works like a charm.

fully charged 4.8v pack reaches 6v, i'v been using a regulator with 5.6v output with no issues, but keep watching this thread im sure there are ppl who used 6v on them.

Regulated will be fine, they mean don't use a 5 cell pack.

I've been running them on 6 volt through a Fromeco Reg for the past 6 months with no problems.
