I've seen the same thing that kelldog describes. The new guy brings a plane to the field built with the junk hardward that comes with most ARFs and it's sometimes not even flyable. And like I've said before, almost every structural failure I've seen has been an ARF. One thing that amazes me is that as most of them are built you are never instructed to glass the center section of the wing?!?!? Every time I advise new guys to do that they look at my like I've got 3 heads.... Anyway, I'm done with ARFs. Build on!!
