6V or 7V

On second thoughts I don't think I need it because as soon as I connect it it drops down to 6.7V which is roughly the same voltage the Hitec battery has.

Hi

If I was you I would drop in a voltage regulator just to be on the safe side there only cost about £1 so not to pricey. A 5A one should do the trick.

I think your old battery must be on its last legs, because my standard RN Pack can measure about 7v immediately after a charge it soon drops to about 6.5v after about a minute.

At last after three weeks the 6v 1300mah battery pack arrived, I charged it and connected it to the multimeter and got 7V. Does this mean that I have to install a voltage regulator or I connect the battery as it is? One other thing the battery contains two leads - one to recharge it and another servo-type connection. I was going to remove the servo connection and put a different one that would fit with the controller boad. Is that right?
