RE: how many enjoy the build?
I'm an arf guy and do not like long tedious work! I'm more into the mechanical side of it, installing the electronics, servos, switches, engine and fuel system and so on. What I find hardest that I have to make myself do is all the upkeep that is needed after the planes have maidened. Five of my seven gas planes are over 2 years old and always seem to have an issue or two pop up, (mainly covering issues) after a day of flying one of them. My glow planes get abused and if a little packing tape is needed here or there so be it, I would not treat my gas planes this way! It is getting harder to build a new plane because most of my spare time is eaten up maintaining the ageing fleet. Oh well, the majority are still around and I'm glad that they are ageing rather then in a trash can!
