I have been recently looking at the 3D capable foamie models that i can possibly get one some day , but i noticed something. No manufactures sells RTF kits. I looked everywhere and i couldn't find one single EPP Indoor/Outdoor 3D Airplane. I found a few cheap chinese outdoor "acrobatic" planes but no full on 3D foamies. I checked eflite, dynam, horizon, hobby zone, hobby king, etc. etc. No one on the world wide web, that i can find, sells the RTF kit.
I mean i kind of understand why, because most of the people getting into 3D are already RC vets and they already have what they need to get their ARF or BNF to get in the air. But what about the Novice pilots who don't own much equipment or parts to get the planes flying. They have to buy a lot more equipment at one moment to fly 3D.
Maybe there is more of a reason that i just said that i don't know about, but i really think that they should sell RTF kits because it would attract more people to this area of the hobby.
Tell me what you guys think about this. I mean i may just be blowing a bunch of hot air , but i just would like to know anymore reasons why they don't sell RTF.
p.s. I know some of you will say that buying the rest of the equipment is the smart thing to do.
Some of us would do that, but then there is also the people who are students who don't have a car yet and are also saving up to get their pilots license
RTF has been known to be less painful to the wallet
