There is guys that do but most of them are newbies or club pilots on a budget. I have had almost every servo out there fail on me in a heli but only after 3 or 4 crashes or 400 flights on them. Not saying Hitech would fail every time but there has been a high failure rate with them in the past due to the high load and high vibration that a heli puts them through.

Here is a vid of a heli of what helis put there servos through

The new Hitechs that are out now may be great in helis I haven't been testing anything these days duue to the rc cars
That video is SICK!
