I never would have considered building a kit until I attempted a motorbox repair on my balsa ARF. It was a bit of a revelation. I just bought my first short kit and I'm going to give it a shot.
Andy....... this is what is needed. You got my attention, when your said "I believe", not "this is how it is". I think exactly as you do.....but......what I cannot stand...is the "putdowns" toward people that fly "ARFs". If someone wants to say they "built" an ARF, what is the real harm. What I enjoy, is this sport/hobby. What I hate is the "I am better than you" attitude of some involved. And it is still only a WORD, guys.

P.S. Andy, stick around, this will get real messy. "ding" round two........
