I see referrals to ARF's all the time as ''Kits.''

I read this in ''Build'' threads.

If an ARF is a kit, then what is a Kit?

Are ARF's built or assembled?

Wow! It must have been a boring morning for you. You've been a valuable and respected member around here for far too long to start trolling. Just felt like stirring the pot today to see who would bite, eh?...shame on you.[&o]
not "Trolling" just asking where the line should be drawn.
another point made by Bob >"It's called investment of time and effort. Skill is also involved."<...........................holds true too as a lot of modelers (see, i give credit to anyone) come into this hobby as the ARF'ers that lack any skill at handling a model the way it's been done for years. buy a kit, err ARF, slap it together, put a radio in it, slap the motor on and go fly............some get lucky, some have the worst time of their life as the model is either setup poorly, or the engine doesn't run for beans...........safety techniques are going out the door too even though i see a guy who is a safety officer who shouldn't be allowed on the flightline.........nopde, they simply go shopping............let's see, i need one of these, one of those, oh and one of these........have no idea what it's really for, but the guys at the field all have them.............what happens when something gets broken?....................oh yeah, just buy another kit
