Default Karbonite Horn Screws?

http://www.hobbyhorse.com/karbonite_notice.shtml

Due to some reported servo output shaft failures, `Hitec has changed the horn screw on all Karbonite geared servos from 8mm to 10mm in length. This increased the strength of the output shaft eliminating potential for a problem. If you have any Karbonite servos with the 8mm `screws contact our service department at [email protected] and we will be happy to send you the new 10mm `screws at no charge...
I browsed the `Hitec site and saw no mention of this.
Would a `Hitec rep like to confirm or deny?

The above information was provided by a Hitec rep and its accurate. The early Karbonite servos were shipped with the shorter 8mm screws, subsequent shipments have had the longer 10mm screw for some time now.
