Bought that programmer with the HS-7954SH servo. If I turn fail safe off, it freezes in place when it loses signal. If I turn fail safe on, it servos to the fall safe position and holds there. Doesn't seem to be a setting to kill it when it loses signal. Maybe different hitec servos can do different things.

Anyways, my solution has been to buy another servo. Servocity says futaba digital servos just die when they lose signal. Those weren't available around town, but Savox were. I can personally confirm the Savox die when they lose signal. It looks like just hitec hold position.
