Yes, I know. No, they're not.

You could try phoning them and explaining how this is not looking after
their customers and they will explain how that servo is not supposed to be
used on helicopters. Then you'll say but the modelshop sold it to me for
use in a heli, and they'll say that's not down to them.
The guys name you'll need is Ken, IIRC.
BTW, has your servo actually failed ? If not, you can help ensure its'
longevity by ensuring it is mounted correctly (ie, the body of the servo
totally isolated from the frame), and that the heli is as vibration free as
possible.

Good luck
