Default Servo Voltage

Hey guys,

I have a Mugen MBX6 Eco with a Tekin RX8 and T8 motor. Im running a 4s lipo pack with a spektrum receiver. I been looking at servos and see a different set of specs for 4.8v, 6.0v, and in some cases 7.4v. What specs should I be looking at and if there is a way, can I run 6.0v if I am not already?

Your RX8 supplies 6V to the receiver/servo. So you do have what you want.

If you want to feed 7.4V to the servo you will need to bypass the Tekin's internal BEC and use a Castle BEC set by a Castlelink to 7.4 volts.
