Do you have a reason for this? I am not sure what you mean by a smaller version of the Eq10. Can you elaborate a bit more?
No real reason other than the RX would get 6.6V instead of 5. I'm not sure it would affect anything.

As for the other part of my question, I'm thinking of something like the Power System EQ6 minus the regulator since it's not needed for A123 batteries.
