Default Ar9000 receiver voltage

on the website there is very little technical info on that receiver.
I mean: voltage ranges, at what voltage does the receiver still perform.

At this moment I am using ACT receivers which still operate at 1.5V (and have a max of around 9V)
Why is this important... I have 8 hitec 5955 (3Amps) in my setup and flying wild 3D.
So it pulls 8 * 3 A = 24 Amps at the max. Normally the voltage then drops.
99% of the reeivers cannot hadle this, thats why you need power expanders, but I hate these, extra weight and cost.

In my current setup I use 2 ACT receivers, they are connected via a DSL cable (so they work as 1 receiver). connected 4 servos per receiver.
4 * 3 = 12 Amps and the receiver can handle 20 Amps.

How can we do this with the Ar9000 receivers?
