5.3V - Is that pushing my luck with this?

[troynh]

So, would 5.3V's be pushing my luck with this? I'd love to use a 2s lipo hooked to a 5V UBEC but don't want to prematurely burn this unit up.

Thanks in advance.

5.3 is fine - 5.5 is the stated limit of the chip, 6v is the real max

Thanks. I saw 5V silk screened on the board and wanted to make sure.
I'm still waiting for it in the mail....

So are you making a flying TV-B-gone?

Hmmm... That can be done.
