RE: Carbon gear for profile
For what it's worth CF gear has been tried many times on profiles and the consensus was almost always "not worth it". CF gear can be too stiff and brittle for the type of abuse profiles take. I can't tell you how many times we've all seen CF gear snap off at the shoulder at various ProBro or other funfly meets. Better to have some flexibility in the gear instead of ripping the fuselage apart too. Just m2cw.
