Happy new year everyone! The art of building is becoming more and more rare these days, due to the fact that all the ARFs (We all know this one) are taking over. There is a fellow member at my club, who's was an avid builder in his day and one of our founding fathers of our club, as well as operated his own hobby shop, mentioned not long ago that One doesn't have to put much pride and time into building an ARF, an individual just has to assemble it, and fly. Unlike a kit where we can spend countless hours building, detailing, etc (depending on the kit or a scratch build). In a mishap with an ARF versus a kit, it only cost money, versus money, time and pride.
