Man, I'll say this, I get alot of the parts and stuff I need off of Ebay. For one, you can find great parts for incredibly cheap prices. My Jato is almost completely aluminum and I only have like $120 or less into it. Last minute bids are a **** man. And for two, most of the time, not always, you can get free shipping. Other places to look are like towerhobbies.com or even on rcuniverse.com in the buy and sell section. People are always selling good stuff on here. Good luck Holmes.
