Check E-bay. THere are several on there for sale. Some come with the servo, some don't. You might try Ricks or Heliproz, I think I saw them for 199 on one of their "special" price lists.

Dude: you should consider the Futaba GY401 with S9253 Digital Servo. I have them in both my birds and they are Awsome. Easy to set-up and operate too!

401 is a great beginner gyro but the 9253 just isnt torquey enuff for hard 3d...
The 560 8700 combo is a better bet if you are willing to put in the time to set it up right if it doesnt work straight off...
It does like a high headspeed as it is a dedicated 3d gyro so if you are running a low headspeed then go with the 401 for now...

HANDS DOWN the GY401 and the 9253 combo IS THE BEST BANG FOR YOU BUCK - very trouble free , very dependable , easy to set up . and yes we have seen this combo on many .30 & .60 size machines doing 3D flight
