You beat me to it but we are saying the same thing. Some arfs require as much work as a kit, if not more. Its damn hard to tear out cricked formers compared to just gluing it in right in the first place.

To make one look nice you have to have skill! I believe Peter's started as their "kit" again not comparing them but this is different than an Arf! I have their smaller A-10 coming in the kit form and it's far from an arf and will need several parts made.... The plug and play stuff is a joke in my mind, someone won't even install their own servos.... I can't imagine not having the piece of mind in doing that your self to make sure it's done properly on a model that expensive!
