you could buy a cheap RC car and scrap the radio board from there, also the h-bridge circuit.

Any local store that sells that stuff eg. walmart, target, kmart...
If they are cheap, chances are they wont have servos in them and wont be able to control them.
What is your budget for this? "really cheap" can mean a lot of things ;)

I don't think you will find a decent rx+tx package for $30...
My best advice would probably be to get a cheapo rc car off ebay and use the insides and maybe the shell if you need it. The only problem with that route is you would probably need additional circuitry to control servos.
Do you want to be able to control servos straight away?
What do you want to make as the end package?
