Default RE: Does anyone really build any more?

Hi Kelvin,
I just sent you a PM. The world has definitely gone ARF. Of all the F15's out there, I think the JHH one is probably going to be the toughest one to sell sadly. Skymaster, Fei Bao, Jet Legend, etc etc etc all have ARF F15's. Avonds, Yellow Aircraft, they have kits that have already been (re)designed for turbine.
Having said that, the EDF craze is growing all the time, and having a kit that basically has nothing done to it such as the JHH kit, is probably pretty attractive to the EDF crowd. They can have full control over building it and the weight.
I think there is value there, it's just to a different crowd today than it was 10 years ago.
Does it have any value, sure it does, does it have enough value to justify selling it and dealing with shipping and such, well, I don't really know.
But that's the great thing about RCU, you can put an ad up, and if nobody buys it, it doesn't cost you anything
