I flew my KR-2S in rain, it is reasonably waterproof. However the water comes in from the tail elevator and rudder cutouts. Drainholes are needed in the aft fuselage. However the propeller suffers most. it is truly amazing what rain (soft water) does to a (hard wood) propeller. Basically I hade to repaint the leading edge.
