Bill thats because all RX's and servos today are rated for up to 6v. But
if we were talking LiPO cells then a 2 cell pack would need a V
regulator as thats rated over 8v.

He clearly said he wanted to use a 5-cell pack. That is not a problem for
any receiver that I know of.
Li-Po's etc are different, but that was not the question.

Hi all,
You can use the 5cell without a problem if you have long servo leads. I
would not use the 5cell an a RES glider with stock servo leads. Due to
the longer wire in a scale or F3B, F3J Glider the resistance is
increased and the extra voltage is not a problem. And if
Not all servos are rated for five cells. Most but not all. For instance JR's 331 with a 3 pole motor is not. But a 331 has about 20% more torque than a JR 341 and if you drop in a set of JR 368 gears it makes an excellent flap servo. I have been using that set up in a Space Pro without any
Well actually Bill My answer was in reference to your answer to him, you
said I think that you use 5 cells all the time and have never had a
problem, so I said that's because you equipment is rated for up to 6v.
It seems that gordy doesn't agree about using 5 cells. One thing I have
found out
