Default RE: Does it cost more to by an ARF or to build from scratch

I love to Build and to Fly. I have built many kits and am about to start on a 10' wingspan Don Smith F4U-1D Corsair off plans. I think building is just as much fun for me as flying. I only build Giant Scale WWII Fighters. I live in Wisconsin so I take a Summer Break from July through October sometime and then fly my pants off with my kit built planes and with a couple 3D ARF's. I can fly the ARF's without the same feeling as I would have if I crashed one of my pride and joy kit built planes. It allows me to fly to the end of my present envelope with the ARF's.
