Default RX okay?

I think I killed my high voltage Futaba servo. It always seemed to get hot, but my Harbor Frieght thermometer never read above 110°. No binds, endpoints set appropriately. It finally got slow to center and just quit. I used a CC BEC set to 7.4, never thinking to check if that was the actual output till it was too late. Turns out it was putting out 7.45v? Too much? I used the Holmes bypass, but is there any way my receiver might be damaged?

0.05 V is irrelevant in this case. If it indeed died because of the extra 50mV it is a flawed product.

If the rx works, it's fine. Most will take 7v
