I am remodeling a senior kadet arf right now that has never flown. After talking to a fellow club member that has one and finding the problems he had I decided to do some mods before flying it. He broke the fire wall out on a hard landing and he broke the wings apart with a high g maneuver. When I got in to mine I find it glued together with hot glue which I don't like so am doing some changing before useing it.
Not sure I would try another arf.
