Default Hitec Digital servo noise

I put some 5925 digital servos in my plane and notice that they make a loud buzzing sound. Is this normal?

Yes!!!

The hum you hear is due to the fact that Hitec Digitals update every 1 micro second versus every 8 micro seconds for other servos.

It's more than a hum, more like a loud hum.
I have a Futaba high speed digital on my raptor heli and it doesn't sound 1/2 as loud.

Its because if there installed the weight of the surface puts pressure on the servo making it work a lot harder then not all linked up....
