RE: Servo compatability
Like Minn says, you betcha. I've been doing just that for lotsa years. I use a lot of Hitec recievers for my Futaba computer radio's.

RE: Servo compatability
Electrically they're compatible Mechanical, maybe not.
Newer Futaba servos have a plug with a raised rib that may or may not fit the servo sockets on a Hitec receiver. Just shave the rib off carefully and it'll be OK.
Older Futaba with 3 pin connectors have to ne changed.
