what happen if i use the LiHV like normal lipo
charge to 4.2vol/cell and stop play at 3.7vol/cell storage at 3.8/cell does it damage to my LiHV battery for long time use or i need to charge it to 4.35vol/cell stop play at 3.85vol/cell and storage at 3.9vol/cell

Yes you can charge it on regular lipo mode. Most do that in spec racing. So instead of 4.35v a cell it will be 4.20v a cell. Storage voltage would be 3.80v instead of 3.9v a cell. No it will not damage it. Just don't over discharge past 3.2v a cell and don't overcharge above 4.35v a cell.

I do this personally with my 2s LiHV packs in my race buggy for spec 13.5 class.

Edit: it's alright to charge a LiHV on lipo mode, but never ever charge a lipo on LiHV mode. And, always do balance charge as well so the cells balance out 😉
