Default Short Kits w & w/o wood

RCMAN - this is allot easier said than done. Understand that now I would have to carry twice as many kits in inventory, with & without wood. Buying in volume? You don't understand what these balsa suppliers consider volume. I would have to make a significant additional investment to be even considered volume. I have had conversations with FunAero RC to see if they would have an interest in sell full kits, though I haven't heard back from them. Since they laser cut, they carry wood in stock and have already made the investment. You're markup idea sounds good on paper, though it doesn't work that way. People do are not willing to pay that extra money for the convenience (unfortunately). There are some that will, though limited. When I offered full kits, people were asking for short kits. Now a select few are asking for long kits. You just can't please everyone, and I realize that. I've decided that it is best just to offer the short kit for know. I'm sorry if this is not your preference, but due to economics, it is not worth offering both.
