Which model Futaba is it? Does it have a removable module? If so, I think it's actually cheaper to get a different module and receiver than buy a Futaba receiver - pricey!
Spektrum is the obvious choice, but there are others - I got the Assan kit, which has never failed, because I wanted enough receivers for a sizable fleet. My Hitec CRX won't save settings unless I pop it out, though - odd, but not a biggie...Giantcod do the FrSky kit, which is very inexpensive, yet performs well judging from reviews.
2.4ghz in surface models is an absolute rip-off when the same technology is available for planes at a fraction of the price.
