Default ARF Jets

Hi Kylen

You pose a very good question. The only way you are going to be sure that the jet is properly constructed is by doing some background checks. In the instance of the DL Aeromacchi, the information is as follows:

Designer: Yves Duchesneau
Design Base: Designed around the proven kit version of the aircraft
Construction: Reports indicated that the ARF is constructed very well, true to the kit version.

Yves has an excellent reputation as a designer of excellent aircraft kits. He has applied these same talents to the ARF version of the Aeromacchi. You can therefore expect an excellent ARF aircraft.

This same process goes for Larry Wolfe and his ARF Hawk. Larry has been designing and selling kits for 20 years. He has an excellent reputation as a designer. His ARF Hawk is no exception.

If your going to buy an ARF, do the backgound on the company/designer and see if your comfortable with their reputation before you buy.

Now, there are going to be ARF kits out there that are going to be stinkers. If you do the background research, you can pick out the rose in the dandelions.

Phew! Hope I got my message across...
