ARF Kit Engineering
Im begaining to find that some of the ARF kits on the market leave a lot to be desired
in the engineering dept. I just purchased the TomHawk ARF from Hobby People and
found that the instruction manual poor and the rudder and elevator linkage system
poorly designed.
Just recently I had a nitro models Bobcat 50 and a friend of mine has the Bobcat
120 we dont think much of the kit engineering and neither of us will purchase them
again. I think for me im going to stick with kits that I know have decent inst manuals
and someone has put a some thought into the kit design, I know kits that I have had
from Horizon and Great Planes have been fine and im sure there are some other
fine kits out there as well. I have also had some Model Tech kits from Hobby people
a few years ago that had decent manuals and were ok.
Just to sum up im not going to be quick to purchase kits especialy those new on the
market without haveing first hand info about them.
