Do you guys really believe there is ANY difference in the quality of the COMPONENTS that go into a JR or Hitec or Futaba servo?? It's all just metal/plastic gears, an electric motor, a pot or two, and some IC's. I promise you there is no way these guys are manufacturing the majority of these components in-house. They buy what they need from other mfg's....and more than likely JR/Hitec/Futuba use some of the same vendors. The only difference is the way they mix up all the parts...which in the end is a very minor difference. Otherwise JR servos would only work with JR rx's, Hitec only with Hitec rx's, ect. There is a standard as to how these servos operate.. everything else is just fluff to get us to buy their product.

If you want to use that as an excuse for the Motors and ICs burning up in the servo (Hitecs tech report..not mine) that is your choice. Go ahead and bury your head in the sand and pretend it's not valid. That is completely your choice. Oh yea, Hitec noted zero physical damage to the servos.
If you want to risk your $3000-$8000 plane to what many of us feel is substandard equipment because you trying to save a few bucks (not many when you consider the overall cost of these planes) it's your choice.
