Its not just the kits. The arfs have gone through the roof as well. I bought the top flite 60 size thunderbolt arf for 289.99 about 8 months ago and now that same plane is 369.99. Also why hasn't Horizon's prices gone up. I think its strictly a great planes thing going on. All theses brands that have been listed are are all owned by great planes. No thanks ill stick with Horizon.
