I myself use 1700mah LiFe reciever packs which run at 6.6volts and are supposed to be "safe" for normal 6volt operating servos. I use Spektrum recievers so I can run anywhere from 4.8volts up to over 7.4 volts anyway.........

We have tested the HS-7955 with 7.4V lipo packs and have not had any adverse problems. Many of our team drivers/pilots have been doing this for some time now. The spec sheets will probably not change, as they were written in 2007, way before we did actual testing with the higher voltages.
At 7.4V, the torque is 387oz/in and the speed is .13sec.
