I’ve never actually gotten very much into rc but can definitely see how the process would be rewarding.
I find the slower paced drawn out process of static models therapeutic, taking the time sanding and polishing up each piece before moving onto the next. At the time what feels like menial work ends up with a lovely model haha!

Heh,
Ta v much.
Short of childhood kits I have not returned to the airfix format yet.
Maybe when my boys get older, but I always remember the process being so drawn out.
I have Gunpla and recently built an MG Kyrios but the 'snap together', 'pre painted' parts make the process a bit more tolerable. (Not forgetting poseable parts)
Maybe a loop hole for the kit manufacturers to exploit?
Like an advanced version of the Quick Builds?
Re. Tamiya, again I find RC more rewarding as the process is fairly quick and the result can be thrashed accordingly.
