Hi Timbo I suppose it depends on the exchange rate lol, the ESC is probably the same one you have found Super Simple 50, rated to 58A but I will not exceed 40A Running high voltage to keep that down(well thats the plan LOL)
You wait till you see the servos
$5 Hextronic 5010's for the flaps and rudder, £5.99 Futabas for ailerons and Elevator bought from Steve Webb, am linking the two elevators as two servos for an elevator is overkill, I know there are those that will say it is safer, what if one fails?? My friend had a massive glitch last evening that destroyed his model, he had a servo on every surface. The object of the exercise is to see how cheaply a reasonable sized model can be done electric. I am not saying Castle Creations ESC and AXI motors aren't great products, but for more of us general flyers to have a go they need to know that an error isn't going to cost them an arm and a leg, just a singed eyebrow or two 
Probably ought to start a seperate thread and not hog Shauns, sorry Shaun......
