Using 2 Futaba receivers on the same aircraft *HELP*

Hi,

I have an opportunity to pick up a new Futaba 8j from a buddy of mine for dirt cheap (letting it go for the price of a Spectrum DX5E). Comes with the stock R2008SB 2.4GHz S-FHSS receiver. My current controller for my copter is the Futaba 10j which runs a R3008SB receiver with T-FHSS.

What i would like to do is use the 8j for controlling my Arris Zhaoyun 3 axis gimbal to access all of its features and leaving my brother to control the gimbal while pilot the aircraft.

I know each radio/receiver have a unique ID from the factory but was wondering if anyone has had any experience with interference using 2 nearly identical remotes on the same aircraft? Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.

Also on board is a Boscam TX for FPV, not sure if that will ad any type of interference as well....

Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.

Thanks guys

I operate a Futaba RX for flight control and a seperate Futaba RX on the Gimbal dedicated to Gimbal operation, T14SG for flight T8J for Gimbal.
No problems at all.
I also have 2 X 5.8Ghz Vide TX on board, 1 for pilot camera and 1 for the Gimbal payload camera, also no issues.
