Default Newb help on tensor build

I have 2 questions which should be pretty easy. The first is whether or not these are good components for the Tensor 4D. I basically just went to hobby-lobby.com and looked at their recommended setup. Here it is:

1 EFL2100 - TENSOR 4D AEROBATIC RC AIRPLANE $ 55.00 55.00

1 ETC2500 - LI-POLY SMART CHARGER 1-4 CELL $ 49.90 49.90

3 HTS055 - SUB MICRO SERVO HS-55 $ 20.50 61.50

1 JESAP08W - COMBO: JETI ADVANCE PLUS 8 WITH PROGRAM CARD $ 69.90 69.90

2 P10038 - 10-3.8 SLOWFLYER PROP $ 2.80 5.60

1 PM22002 - RADIAL MNT FOR AXI 22 SERIES $ 12.90 12.90

1 TP9003 - 3 CELL 11.1V 900MAH LIPO PACK

Question #2:
Let me add a disclaimer. All of the planes I purchased in the past have all been RTF. This is my first attempt at an ARF. I have a Futaba 7CAP/7CHP transmitter (PCM/PPM selectable). Does it really matter what receiver or servos I use with it (i.e. it doesn't have to be a Futaba receiver does it)? Also, if my transmitter is on channel 17, do I need to also buy a crystal that's on channel 17 to put in the receiver that I order ? Hope that's not a dumb question.
