I do think its possible. I am also thinking about Upgrading my Futaba 9c with the 2.4 ghz modules. If i were you i would check on the Futaba web sight and i also think you can shoot them an e-mail with your questsions.Hope this helps.

I recently upgraded my 9c with Futaba's TM-8 & R6008hs. Unfortunately I have not been able to fly due to the weather we are having. The conversion and setup were easy and the instructions were easy to follow. Looking forward to warm weather to try it out

Yes it is possible. I have done this. A search of the FCC ID # reveals that the TP-FM module is compatible with the 7C-9C module. Order the 7 channel 2.4ghz module and receiver.

I replaced the FP-TP-FM RF Module with the 2.4ghz TM7 RF module and use the R607FS 2.4ghz receiver.

I converted my futaba 9c to 2.4 gh with a spektrum dsm2 8-ch aircraft module. I have flown two different aircraft several times with no problems.

to be honest i looked at converting my 8u and at buying a 10c and after being a 30 year futaba owner i bought the new hitec aurora 9
you can buy this system for a few dollars more than converting your system
and the receivers are affordable when switching all your planes over to 2.4
