There is no doubt that having to tear down good work for a "fix" is 
frustrating.

If you think the design is poor and the quality low, then you should 
junk or sell your aircraft.

My experience with Velocity Aircraft is that, they have a really great 
product- an EXPERIMENTAL airplane which they have steadily improved 
since I first looked at it in 1991.
