"You're probably correct in your assumption about people not having the ability and maybe even the inclination to build but the time aspect is definitely invalid because if you can find the forty or so hours to try to piece together assemblies that some third world person built, you can definitely find time to build your own kit."


Only for for clairity sake:
I stated my opinion, which was: "A great portion of the folks in R/C now, FEEL they just don't have the time, the ability; or, the inclination to build"!

From your point of view, the point can't be invalid, because we are actually in agreement that people incorrectly think they don't have time. Certainly the reality is that "some" people maybe really don't have the time! Others don't have time because they chose to use their time for other things!

Otherwise, I agree with all you said, John!
