No worries, you can use pretty much ANY servo with any radio. In fact, in most cases, you won't even have to rewire the servo's plug keads either(several years ago everyone used a different wiring pattern in the wires from the servo to the receiver, but then they all got smart & used Futaba's "J" plug pattern as the standard, so now they're all a plug-&-play matter).... :cool:

The only thing you will need to do if you want to use the futaba servo's in a any other RX other then Futaba is trim off the little tab on the side. But as Grizzbob said all the companies went to a standardized wiring.
