Default RE: Do we buy Arfs so we can rebuilld them befoe we fly them?

How can we get the companies to start listening to us and start making a better product? Hey what if they were to offer a short kit in every model? Then we could add the parts we want and not get charged for the cheesy ones that sometimes come with a "ARF". Usually the first thing to get tossed is the plastic clasps,control horns, (sometimes pushrods),landing gear and tail wheel assembly. Someitmes even the servo tray is replaced by a nice futaba one. Then wheel pants and cowl get extra glass , fuse gets fuelproofed and finally the wing root gets glassed. Has been keeping my models looking better for a while at least.These are just the standard extras I include in the purchase price. oops almost forgot those really cool plastic safety clips that are a pain to get over the controll rods on the servo horn. LOL
