Default Airtronics Servo Questions

I put an Airtronics 94773M servo for throttle/brake and a 94771M servo for steering in my buggy. This is my first nitro buggy build, so please excuse my "noob" question haha. How much static do servos normally make? When I turned the receiver on for the first time just now, there was a bunch of static noise coming from the servos. Is this normal? The servos are performing normally, receiver battery pack is 6 volts.

Default digital servo

That sound is normal for digital servos. nothing to worry about.

Once the servos center themselves they shouldn't make any sounds. They only make noise when there is a load on them.

how to differential a good servo. a servo should centralize without any sound. it's normal to have some sound on power on.

if it shaking or rattling while centering like retries. there is something not right.
