Thats the trouble with starting out with an ARf as a new pilots first plane. He doesn't learn the basics because trainer kits have lots of pictures and explain every step in great detail. After that, if you run across an ARF that has vague instructions, thats all you should need. Arfs made by World Models fly very well and the instructions consist of about a dozen pictures to get the idea across but if you have built an actual kit then the pics make sense and and are adequate! I am surprized that instructors suggest an ARF to a newbie and don't think that they are doing the new flyer in this hobby any favors by not suggesting a full build kit. [8D]
