It is weird. Weirder still is that when I plug the servo into the receiver, the receiver stops working too (actually I tried two different Spektrum receivers and the same thing happens). The LED on the receiver turns off and it stops putting out inputs to other servos. I hooked the battery up to a data logger to see if the Savox servo is shorted out and allowing tons of current to flow through it and that's not the problem. So I have no idea why it is causing the receiver to shut down.
