Default Radio shift question

I have a couple of Fatuba recievers that I would like to use with an Airtronics transmitter. I believe these are opposite shift. Is there any easy way to convert either the reciever or transmitter shift? I know I have some Hitec recievers that have a jumper that can be reversed for shift change. What about the above? If no way, is there anyone out there who wants to exchange two Fatuba recievers for two Airtronics or Hitec on same shift as Airtronics? [ channel 42 crystals included]

Which Airtronics transmitter do you have? If you have a RD6000 or RD8000 you can use those receivers with it because the transmitter has the ability to select the modulation type. You can set it in order to use the Futaba receivers with the transmitter. If you don't one of these radios then there is no way to use the Futaba receivers with the Airtronics transmitter.

If it is a RD-6 or 8000 go to PPM/PPM Rev.

Thanks for the info guys but I still am having a problem. How do I do this? I cannot find any ppm/ppm functioon to reverse. I am using an RD 6000. It is an older one, prob 6-8 years. The only Modulation change it shows I can do is to change from ppm/fm to pcm/fm to ppm/fm invert. Is that what I am looking for? Can you give me any further details?
Thanks in advence.

What you want is the "MOD" function. This lets you select modulation for other types of radios.
