They've also got a combo offer on the s1 which includes a 13.5 motor and esc, servo and radio for USD190.

I've nearly finished my s1, just need to spray the body. Can't wait to get it out on the track.

One thing I've noticed though is that the sway bars don't seem too do much. I've never used them before but I believed that lifting one wheel would cause the other to rise. Mine doesn't seem to do anything.
You probably did something wrong, if you use the grub screws on the back part of the bulkheads, back them out a fair way, you want them to be only just touching the the sway bar. Also make sure there is no binding in the arms, as that will stop them working right as well. If the arms do not fall down under their own weight, sand down the 2mm spacer on the hinge pin till they work free again, i found they are just a bit tight.
