is there any work needed to strengthen the aircraft for optimum performance and Durability??

i want to keep it for a while and not have to repair it evrytime i snap roll it!!!

My wings blew off my Cap 232 because the main spar was weak. last thing i want is it to happen again

not at the cost the Cap cost me
On the first models that came out the magnets for canopy retention where a bit weak and needed to be backed up with a catch, I don't know if they have upgraded them, but the new yellow one I just received will get a catch just the same as it makes a good handle to remove the canopy with, otherwise you have to put your fingernails under the rear edge to lift the canopy and it will eventualy break and/or shead paint.

Also after prolonged use the ply incidence pin holes in the fus will ovalise and allow the wing to move up and down, I put some carbon washers inside to reinforce them, other than that I have not found anything that needs any work.
