How is the RV-12iST different from the RV-12iS?

[bsbarnes10]

Hi!
Does anyone know if the RV-12iST has any structural differences from the regular iS? I know it's provided with an IFR capable instrument package which I assume can be spec'ed out for an amateur built RV-12iS but the website also mentions:

"Enhanced-duty brakes and landing gear attachment"

Are these actually different from what is offered on the regular RV-12iS?

Heavy duty brakes and landing gear seem like something I'd want to include on my (as yet unbuilt) RV-12iS

Yes, and no.

The landing gear attachment is the same for both (the base fuselage is the same for both models)

The wheels / brakes are different.
