A conceptual design of an upgrade for RFX-mod was described at the past IAEA-FEC conference and the device is presently being modified. Further analysis of the RFX-mod database, concerning m=1 Tearing Modes locking threshold and reconnection events characterization are presented. Estimates of nonlinear behavior of Tearing Modes in RFX-mod2 together with detailed electromagnetic modeling aiming at optimizing error fields for the upgraded device have been performed in order to consolidate the design.
