Larry, and Mike, My original (short) KR-2 always needed forward stick
input above 155 mph indicated. My cockpit adjustable ,elevator trim
tab did not have enough authority above 155. It would however hold
altitude up to and including 155. Al Campbell told me he also had to
hold the nose down similarly.

Strictly a function of the "angle of incidence" of the horizontal
stabilizer. Mine is the same. I wonder if the original shorter KR2
with VW and maybe a slightly slower cruise is the same or if Ken just
guessed wrong by one or one and a half degrees on the tail. I guess
better to error with nose down than nose up.
