FM Air to Ground

[C.O.Crawler]

So, what would it take to convert a Futaba six channel FM, AIR radio (like this: http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin/wti0001p?&I=LXKAJ1**&P=0 ) to ground use?

I know the air system uses Futaba 72MHz FM crystals.

Can a person simply put Futaba 75MHz FM crystals in the radio and receiver, or is there more to it than that?

Thanks for any help

Spend an extra $20, get this, and not worry about it.

Or a Dx-7 with self centering gimbals.

You'd have to send the unit to Futaba and have them convert it.
