I'd love to see what Big Al has to say about this!

Well the HSR-1425CR is branded a continuous rotation servo by Hitec. I would assume they'd know.

To be extra pedantic, I play with 400V continuous rotation servos at work all the time. The primary difference between a servo and a motor is the feedback and closed loop controller.
