Reading reviews on Amazon for the same thing costing $500, it may be 
you'll end up with a handful of plastic.  Just a heads up.

   Mastercard says they're OK for security, and if they don't deliver, MC
   will charge them back.
   And they will monitor the card for all new charges.

   The vendor sent an order acknowledgement on Monday and a China Post
   tracking number today.
   The number is real but has no status, so CP doesn't have the parcel
   yet.

   We shall see.
   I was just expecting 50 bucks worth of crappy plastic, so the
   "full-metal" claim is unlikely.
   If I didn't have other things I'd rather be doing, this would be
   interesting.

   By all means, hold off ordering until I can tell you about the outcome.

         Looks like it's powered by an electric motor so the parts move,
     but
         looks like a quality kit none the less.
