Default RE: FMA Direct's "Co-Pilot"

Hi, I just saw this and I thought it was pretty cool, I saw it used in helicopters and since I fly a t-rex 450 I was thinking about getting one. I was new to heli's and I bought one and had it set up by a friend, after he set it up I took it and trained myself to fly it and now I have gotten pretty good at it. I am past the stage where I dont need the co-pilot to teach me how to fly, and I am not getting it so it will fly for me, I just saw it in a forum for aeiral photography, they say it works great to stabilize what ever you fly to get a still shot from your camera. I had my heli set up by a friend, but call me a noob to the electronics part because I have a question about this co-pilot. I already have a DX 7 receiver and transmitter that I use in my heli, and I hear that this co-pilot comes with a reciever. Can you plug in the co-pilot into an empty slot into the DX7 reciever, or do you have to use the the receiver that it came with. and If you can use the dx7 receiver, do they sell the co-pilot without the reciever.

thanks,
David
