No problem with the Optima 7, refer:
Optima Transceiver - Conversion Lighten 6ch for Indoor & Park-Flyers plus Alternate Light Weight 2.4GHz Antenna.
Hitec "Factory Pilot" Brandon Chitty uses the Optima 7 in his indoor competition Fancy Foam Maxima that weighs 8oz, as well as his 170CC DA powered 42% Aeroworks Yak.

RE: Hitec Recievers
The 7 ch rx will handle any of your flying needs as long as 7 channels is all you need. I have several of the 7ch rx's in 30% gas powerd planes. Be sure to get the HPP-22 programer, and keep up with all of the updates. Hitec had a deal going for a while where you could get one at a reduced price when you purchased a 7 ch rx. Not sure if that's still going on though.
