Um, those don't look like any servo I've ever seen. They look like a small, dc motor powered linear actuator (the description even states they run off of a PMDC motor). Unless the motor in them is in the approved motor list, or you replace it with an approved motor; you will likely have a long conversation with your inspector about them. But as Mark said, opinions on CD are unofficial.
