yeah, probably not. I would email them and ask. is it something you can fix yourself or is it something to do with electronics?

Did you set your end points? What did you have the BEC voltage set at?

With the cut wires, I wouldn't hold my breath for warranty work, but it couldn't hurt to ask. 6v on a 7955 shouldn't have been any problem though - that's what I run mine at. |

There are several places on here that explain how to wire it properly. Shouldn't really ever have to cut wiring on the servo's, ESC's, etc., if warranties are going to be in check. JC  | |

I cut my servos wires to reduce length and Hitec took care of me. Hitec has been nothing but good to me.

i just picked up male to female adapters, this way you can just plug the one end into the Rx and the other into the servo. Now...if you need to cut anything - cut the adapter not the servo wires.  |
