Basicaly normal depending on the servo you are using. The motor in the servo acts like a generator when you move the steering and feeds voltage back to the ESC. The same thing may happen if you spin the drive wheels. With a single ESC MOA, if you pick up the vehicle and spin just the front or rear wheels, it will normally make the other axle turn a little bit as well.
