Default Cheap disposable r/c boards

Is anybody familiar with say, cheap disposable r/c cars or boats--sold without the car body ??? I'm tired of stripping the car off to get the electronics.

I do mean cheap. If I bought a nice Futaba set, I might have to use actual servos instead of the motors in my stockpile from sacrificed cars. I don't want to use a $12 servo when I can pull a "free" generic motor from the spare parts.

I'm refurbishing a sub I built last year out of r/c cars. It could go to Davy Jones on the very next trip...so I stick to the cheap, disposable-grade 27 / 49 MHz stuff.
