Default RE: 101" C-130 arf

Was thinking of picking up a 130 arf..but after figuring up the cost..I choked.
Here is what I figure minimum for a decent flyer.

c-130 arf - $449
retract - $359
o.s. 32 4x - $496 (cheaper than 4 magnum 30 fs)
8 - med servos (hs-645mg) - $280
receiver - $99
battery/switch/servo extentions/y-cords - $60
misc glue/hardware - $40

TOTAL- $1783

I guess if you have 4 matched engine and lots of old servos you could save some bucks, but that is a huge amount of
money for one plane.
