Manfred...Something to think about...
Sig SE kit $75
Sig SE ARF $199
You are paying an extra $125 for for the ARF. It takes about 30 hours to put this one together. I understand that alot of people don't have 30-60-90-200 hrs to build from a kit but what we all might consider is that there are probably members of our clubs that would be glad to put together a kit for you.
For example, most clubs have some retired folks that either have extra time or could use some extra cash. Or they would gladly put together a kit if you gave them two so they could put one together for themselves to sell or fly.
Maybe we should all be mindful when complaining about the quality of ARFs that we could be doing our club members a service if we got them to build our planes for us. I think it might be a great resource we have been over looking in our desire to fly a plane we don't have time to build ourselves.
Just food for thought...
