I heard the same stuff from people about the Glasair 1 FT, but I owned
one for 4+ years and thought it was the most fun plane I have ever flown
(I haven't flown a KR yet... :-) ).
Near as I can tell, some people like having to move the stick (or yoke)
a few inches, and count to five while waiting for the plane to respond
like a Cessna. Moving the stick 1/4 of an inch and having instant
response seems overly sensitive to them, whereas others of us find this
a more pleasurable flying experience.
To each his or her own, as there are enough aircraft types to satisfy
most everyone's preferences. But I agree, don't slam the KR for
oversensitivity simply because you prefer the feel of a Cessna.
