Larry, Thank you for your advice. I guess I'm a tinkerer like probably anyone who sets off to build ...well...anything. And yeah your right it looks like the original design produced a fine airframe. Why change it?

It has to be less expensive than CF and is plenty strong for the job as evidenced by the many KR's flying, like mine with 400+ hours. It doesn't need to be made any stronger and won't be a great deal heavier than using CF. No point in trying to re-invent the wheel.
