What kinda parts do you want to make? For the money I would get a Bridgeport mill with a dro or cursdar control on it. That would be the best bang for the buck. That thing looks real lite weight to me.

 . Just always wanted one to tinker with. Just to make small parts like maybe servo mounts,battery mounts. Maybe some small 1:1 car parts, just basic stuff nothing to elaborate.

For small parts for rc stuff should work fine. I'm just not a fan of buying that kinda equipment.
