what they really want is to sell you a cheaply made plane that wont last long, then sell you another and another. if you build it yourself it will last way too long
this is the most accurate description of whats happened to our great hobby, and ARF buyers will never know the feel of having put a model in the air that was their doing.
Well i need to point out that there are plenty of builders before "scratch builders" like the guys that made your glue or balsa.Arf's are easy,that's the "problem" we all buy packaged poo nowadays
whether it's food or funerals..
