It costs money to produce a new product....machine....materials...train people....
My opinion factory didn't steal his money...you don't pay 100% money up front before the product is delivered to you. If you do...big mistake. Many cases 15% up front and the rest when the product is at the port ready to ship. Chris may had it differently.
Very few people knows the real story. I don't either......so I'll drop it.
My tail is still crooked... cowl was cracked when I received it... carbon tail gear is delaminating...3 of nuts holding the landing gear bracket was loosed......looks like this shipment wasn't 100% right either. [

Speaking of crooked tail....
does anyone remember where Chris posted how to fix this?

Be careful about that fix method! It may be true that some stabs were actually installed wrong, although I doubt it, considering the planes were built in a Jig. And if the jig was wrong, then there must have been several jigs wrong, because no one's fuses were twisted exactly the same amount or even in the same direction!
I checked mine and absolutely verified that the stab tub was perfectly purpendicular to the vert fin, while the wing tube was not inline with either. It is a simple case of a fuse twist as a result of the planes being covered while off the jig and the covering pulling the fuse in all sorts of different directions. I posted my 25 minute fix here somewhere and the fuse is still true. just do a search for "stab fix", "wrinkles" , or "twisted"...
