If your question is do the transmitter and receiver have to have the same number of channels, then the answer is no. A seven channel transmitter will work with a six channel receiver. A seven channel receiver will work with a six channel transmitter. In each case, however, you would only have six channels available and would in each case be limited in the controls available(aileron, throttle, etc.).

Yes, the original 6 channel FASST receivers will work with the new 7C FASST radio, however, they will not work with the TM-7 and TM-8 conversion modules.
