7. I have gone to a 2-receiver setup for added insurance. Can this be done with the 2.4GHz system and how?
   
   
8. Is it possible to utilize Futaba's FASST system while other pilots are using other manufacturers spread spectrum systems?
   
   
9. I currently own a Futaba 2.4GHz FASST system. Is it possible to utilize another manufacturers 2.4GHz spread spectrum receiver with this unit?
   
   
10. Is it possible to utilize the new TM-7, TM-8 or TM-14 modules with my older Futaba FGK series transmitter?
    
    
11. I frequently travel overseas and would like to bring my Futaba FASST system with me when I travel. Are there any rules or regulations that I need to be aware of?
    
    
12. I would like to utilize Futaba's FASST system in my boat, are there any known issues when using 2.4GHz? Specifically, I recall reading that there were issues with "reflection" off the waters surface causing interference, is this true?
    
    
13. I have a plane that I am considering recovering with an aluminum covering. Is this going to be a problem for my Futaba FASST receiver?
    
    
14. I have a 9C and am wondering why you do not offer a 2.4GHz 9-channel module and receiver combo for us 9-channel radio owners?
    
    
15. I have noticed a new R617FS receiver offered with the 7C 2.4GHz radio on your web site. Is there something wrong with the R607FS that we should know about?
    
    
16. Is there going to be a latency issue on eCCPM helicopters if you use an R607FS or 617FS receiver with my TM-14 module.
    
    
17. I can't get my TM-14 Module to work with my transmitter. I live in Europe and purchased this from the US, is there something wrong?
    
    
18. I am having a problem trying to use my non-Futaba digital servos with the R6014FS receiver; I think my receiver is bad. Should I send it in?
    
    
19. Can you give me detailed information on how to set up my 2.4GHz FASST receiver in a full carbon plane?
    
    
20. I hooked up some regular servos to my 2.4GHz receiver, and when I power on my transmitter, my servos go almost full throw one way before centering. Is my receiver bad?
    
    
21. I just got the TM-7 module, and being a "tray flyer" I found that when I lay my transmitter down in the tray, the button on the back of the module depresses, sending the module into Power Down mode. Other than modifying my tray, is there anything I can do?
