Default RE: ARFs getting a bad rap?


ORIGINAL: mirwin

I watch several forums, and I've noticed a seemingly continuous barrage of negative comments about ARFs.
I own a handful of warbird ARF's, and most of them are getting bad rap because they lack scale outlines, and their landing gear and tailwheel are not in scale locations. Plus, they are not as sturdy as kit built warbirds. However, most manufacturers are making improvements, and the newer ARF's are built better and looking more scale.
