The way that they are saying is that if you have a spike, or whatever you want to call it that takes the voltage down below the reset amount for a split second will cause the receiver to reboot which has cost several people their planes? I would think that it would be an advantage to have the lowest possible operating voltage on your receiver to try and avoid this, NOT SAYING IGNORE YOUR BATTERIES! Not that you should need it!!! Not saying that you're going to try and be flying around at 3.1 volts!! What I've been led to believe though, is that if your using digital servos etc and your battery for some reason isn't at full capacity, you suddenly put a large strain on the battery causing it to dip below the reset voltage, the receiver will reset locking you out for X amount of time. That extra 1/2 volt before reset could end up being a plane saver??

Nowhere did I say that you could be flying around at 3.1 volts??? That was uncalled for but whatever...
