I use to run Dura-Lite 6.0 volt Li-Ion batteries long ago that were six volt packs. They would peak charge at about 6.4-6.5 volts fully charged (residual surface charge). When six volt servos came out later, I quit using a regulator with those packs(the packs became unavailable on the market and the 7.4 volt pack came out a bit later). At the time I was flying Airtronics and using the 200oz analog six volt only servos in my 40% Cap 232. I think you will be fine, the Savox servos are dual rated servos and the voltage is not that extreame. I just started using Savox servos to experiment with and they seem good thus far.
