Default DG-303 spar issues - puchase?

My 303 had the gear retract handle problem causing a gear collapse back in 2014. I had the entire bent bracket re-engineered and rebuilt so N303MR will never have a gear collapse again. We joke sometimes that DG stands for "Defective Gear" It's really hard to explain but easy to show and tell. At least I don't have to worry about it failing again on my 303


John, what alterations were made? Also, I have been reading the TNs, and I'm confused if simple aerobatics, i.e. loops, chandelles, etc., are allowed or not.
