That may be true but I think you're assuming the ARF flyers at the field would quit rather than build a kit. I don't believe it is a one to one comparison. If ARFs went away there would stillbe a large majoritywho would revert back to kits orat least try them before quiting.

Take a look around next time you're at the flying field. From my perspective, the ARF's outway the built models.
