I find kits competitively priced in comparison. MyAtomic, Speedtechrc, Ampdraw and others stock TRF kits, and parts are less expensive than TamiyaUSA.. If all else fails, Japan and HK is a good backup plan.. Tamiya (TRF) support is good here in the USA if you know where to look .. Anyway, I have seen 511 go for $475-$525 in some online shops

Sorry for off topic
