Default RX 7.4v limit with 8.4v BEC help

Hey guys, just need your opinion here. I have an axial wraith and I want to upgrade my Transmitter and Receiver because the ar-3 rx is only rated up to 6v. I have a xpert hv servo at about 8.4v max input and will buy a BEC to get the most out of it. But what concerns me is that the Futaba 3pv's receiver only goes up to 7.4v (R203GF). Is their a way around it?

Wire the bec straight to the servo, let the esc power the rx.

Holmes RX adaptor, about $6.00
No red wire cutting, plug and play
My servos are all running at 8.4, rx is set at 6 on my Futaba.




Hang up and Drive
