Default this makes no sense

ive been planning to buy a Ofna 9.5 MBX for my first gas car. ive been researching stuff about the car

this one is for USD 279$ http://www.rcmart.com/catalog/produc...oducts_id=8652

his one is for USD 480$ http://acehardwarehobbies.com/2.2/ca...oducts_id=4046


they are exactly idenctical from what i can tell except that the 480$ one include a transmitter, on the 279$ one do you need to buy a radio kit or just a transmitter?

if you can explain to me why these have such big differences in price that would be awsome

thx

Additional Parts Needed:
# 2ch Radio Control System
# Additional glow plugs are needed
# Glow plug cross wrench
# RC car fuel (20%)
# For non-pull start engines, you need 12V held starter or starter box

That one was the 279.99 one

ABOVE: With the included Airtronics Blazer Sport AM radio and standard servos pre-installed the Hyper 7 RTR will give you many hours of trouble free track time.
for 4XX

Id get the 280 one and get a good digital controller off the bat.

You need the whole system, I would suggest:

For budget:
Airtronics mx3
hitec 645 servo for steeering
hitec 625 servo for throttle
