Default Resetting Hitec Digital servos

JR radios will go to 150%. I have a pair of the new digital wing servos on the rudders of my HotSpot. I have not used a programmer to reset thier values. They are set to 150% ATV for high rate on landings. They are also connected to a gyro (JR 460) and they have been flawless. The gyro really kicks the servos around and makes the landings straight as an arrow on even the most gusty of days.

I'm not that familiar with Hitecs' servo #'s----are all the lockout problems with the lesser expensive Hitec digi's or are the more expensive coreless models affected too? I was planning to use a lot of the Hitec servos in a new turbine model but now I'm leary. Will these servos lock up at ATV values less than 125%? Is anyone having any problems with the new Hitec digitals that have the braided wires. The servos on my HotSpot are braided. Thanks, Kevin

P.S.---The rudder servos are on 24" extensions and are "Y" connected prior to being plugged in to the gyro. Again, I've had no problems!!!
