pipe 75
Hitec 7985 and 5625 170
RX 100
Rx battery 30
voltage regulator 30
fuel 30 - of course, this cost never ends...
premount tires (4) 75
total 1110
T2R 275
17.5 Trinity/Epic Duo2 75
Tekin RS 175
Hitec 5645 55
1 lipo 75
rx 100
Jaco Blues (4) 30
total 785
You don't need a regulator, 99% of lipos won't fit a D8. And you can get a set of premounts for 65 and a pipe for 50. My LHS was selling Team Orion 105 for 100. A 13.5 ss goes for 80 at the LHS. Plus with that T2r gone add 40 for the turnbuckles.
