Hello,
I have an ARF Futaba Professor 40 all new still in the box, My stepdad got it back in the 90's and has build many nitro planes but this one is new still in its plastic with the manual and everything. Just curious is this is a valuable plane as is that i could sell? if not i am going to build it and fly it
Thanks
Isaac

ARFs are a bit chancy when it comes to old ones. Some of the plastics used become brittle with age, and the glues may dry out, causing joint failure.
As to collect-ability, the name implies that it's a trainer. Perhaps a Futaba collector might be interested.

Many long-time airplane guys, including myself, would like to buy this airplane. If you decide to build and fly it yourself you will not be disappointed. This is a great airplane.
