The link is to a post from Bax (Hobby Services manager). Some of the major points are:

the parts are not designed to be assembled in any other way than on specialized jigs made for that particular model

the parts are not made in a manner that makes them suitable for kit packaging

ARF kits have their plans in a completely-different format, more suited to mass-production of the models on specialized jigs. ARF assemblers do not use regular construction diagrams, and in fact, don't actually build from plans. The people who assembled your television or cel phone didn't refer to any schematic or parts diagrams; neither did the assemblers of your ARF model

================================================== ========

The points in the post are referring to taking an existing ARF and offering it as a kit. You apparently cannot just take 100 sets of parts and send 75 to the ARF factory and box up the other 25 as kits.

Cox would have to re-release the existing Pica kits, or possibly even update them; plus produce the ARFs and they are totally different products.

Of course, we know there is at least one manufacturer that does both (SIG). The LT-40, Four Star 40 & 60, and Somethin Extra are all offered as Kit & ARF.
