New Airtronics ("Z" connectors if I recall), yes. Old Airtronics have the pins in the wrong order. You can buy adapter cords or solder on new leads.

I don't think the jumper has anything to do with the servos.... I'm guessing the jumper is how you select which "shift" you want to receive.

On the Hitec selectable Rx's the jumper designates the 'shift'. Just remove or replace the jumper to obtain the appropriate shift for your Tx.

The Servo ports used are determined by the brand Tx. The ports will be tha same as used on the Tx. Not necessarily what is used on Hitec Tx's. Just plug a servo into any port untill you find the right one.
