I know they do something with those ARF's to get those consistent and frankly awesome covering jobs. I don't know what it is but I suspect they cut all the fiddly bits with a laser. If you have CAD files its pretty trivial to determine the shape and size of the covering for, say, the turtle deck. If you don't it takes years of experience to get right.

Anything that make the experience of building a kit smooth and trouble free will expand the market for kits and thus your revenue stream.

Kits need to step it up for the hobby. Kits ARE the hobby. Go Aerotech!
i can assure you that as soon as we saw your prepainted and covering cut comments our wheels went a spinnin' again!!!!! these are great ideas and we are putting them at the forefront of our R&D discussions.

keep the ideas coming guys. we will gladly accept any of these ideas and see if we can run with them!!!!!
