It might work but the transmitting frequency may be way our of spec and the receiver will also be. Browsed some old forums on this topic and learned the Futaba 9C is FCC certified for 75mhz with the appropriate plug in module. Since 9C transmitters and modules are easy to find at reasonable prices today that may be the safest route. Should not be to difficult to find 75mhz Futaba receivers although 5-6 channels might be elusive.
