7.4 lipo receiver packs deliver more voltage than a non HV servo can handle. IIRC, if you run standard servos with a lipo receiver pack you need to use a regulator, HV servos can handle the full voltage of the lipo and don't need a regulator, which is why HV servos are rated at 7.4v not 6v like a standard servo.
