Suggestions

Hi all, i have the chance to buy a new Savage X SS, complete with radio,rotostart,glow pen and fuel all for $900, but i am concerned that i may be able to do better for cheaper, i really want to build it myself, as i have had RTR and i like the challenge of assembly, here in Adelaide we are limited to whee to buy, but for the right product and price i will buy interstate, i was hoping to spend about $600, any suggestions please, i have read your (what to buy) but it doesnt really give you the best deals, any help will be gratefull.

mate of mine bought a savage x 4.6 with all that stuff for $700 odd... i'd shop around a bit to be honest, i think you'll save a fair amount buying interstate if thats the best price you can get there.

If i had $700 to spend I would buy the savage flux in the for sale section. All you need is a charger and your good to go.

A savage flux is an electric savage and they kick a$$. Try RC Hobbies to the left of the page or on the top.
