Will HiTec modules (both 2.4 and 72) work in Futaba transmitters?

Thanks in advance,

A.T.

Yes
1. AFHSS Spectra 2.4Ghz Module iscompatible with other Module Type Transmitters that use the same
Futaba/Hitec module shape/size/pin slots. e.g.:
5UAF, 5UAP
7UAF,7UAFS, 7UAP,7UAPS, 7UHF,7UHFS, 7UHP,7UHPS
8UAF, 8UAFS, 8UAP, 8UAPS, 8UHF,8UHFS,8UHP, 8UHPS
(8FGA, 8FGH as non-module radios can not be accomodated).
9CA, 9CH, 9CAPS, 9CAFS, 9CHPS, 9CHFS
10CH, 10CA
(10CAG or 10CHG as non-module radios can not be accomodated).

2.Futaba - Hitec Modules are compatible
extract "Whilst in many countries outside USA, a considerable number of Futaba users fly happily with a Hitec Spectra 36MHz, 40MHHz or 72MHz module installed, and whilst there are reports of many so used, it is not "permitted" in USA because the combination of the Spectra and Futaba TX Antenna has not been certified by the FCC. However the new Hitec Spectra Pro 2.4GHz is being used by many Futaba users because the module, which has antenna attached, is certified by FCC and does not need a separate certification for use in any other brand transmitters.
There was an early issue, since resolved: Futaba - using Hitec "Spectra 72 MHz " Frequency Synthesizer - DIY update"
