Build cost update 2

This link is to my post in 2011, about R5's build cost.
Build cost so far

More through necessity than real choice, I've tried to keep to a budget for building R5, lol. Since the above post, the largest cost has been the spray paint, even though I started to get the same paint as before from a UK shop called 'The Range' as their cans were almost half the price of 'B&Q' diy store prices.


So, including my recent Radio Transmitter purchase, the total build cost so far is £485.06.


Not bad really, spread out over the build years. Of course it would of been more had I of had to of bought the original wood for the frame and legs (these were off cuts from work).

I still need to buy the Speed Controllers, wires etc.....
