Is it a digital servo? My Savox makes noise but doesn't effect it.

Sounds like normal digital servo chatter to me.

Older analogs were/are a lot quieter. If you turn your wheels or pick the truck up and set it back down and it stops that's normal.

I cant hear the servos from the other guys I run with over my Savox..moves rocks, doesn't effect the reaction of the servo.

It's normal, digital servos are always trying to find "0", if you lift up the steering end, the sound usually goes away (regardless of brand).
A little "twitch" of the steering can also make the sound go away.

The servo is "hunting", not an issue.

Exactly what I needed to read. Search function rules lol! I just quickly tested my new savox and BEC before we started watching a movie And my ADHD wouldn't let me relax without knowing the sound is normal.
