That's just the heli itself, you'll still need a radio with servos and a receiver. I just picked up a brand new 7 channel Futaba PCM radio (not the newest spread spectrum technology, still uses a channel crystal) for $250 shipped. I plan on using this for a new heli and the two planes I have sitting in the garage.
I've found ready to fly helis with everything but a transmitter for anywhere from $300 to $500, can usually get one with a transmitter for around $700. Spending thousands of dollars on a heli, especially your first one, is an exaggeration.
