KR> Ballast weight installation

[Adam Tippin]

Sid i know that you moved the engine forward 2? to compensate for the tail 
heavy.
   But you also moved the landing gear Aft to keep from tail tipping while 
getting into it.
I don?t know any thing else about your aircraft but it seems that that selling 
your 2180 is
a lot more of a loss than removing the balance weights in the tail.
Your plane your decision.
Just my 2 cents.

KR> Electronics ???

[Adam Tippin]

On commercial jets, we have to do the compass swing twice. Once with all 
avionics on. and once with essentials. 
we document the data on a plate just under the compass showing the deviations 
in Degrees.
Our deviation max is 5 deg.

[Adam Tippin]

For those that are unfamiliar with Fire Extinguisher Types??? Halon is designed 
to Consume all Oxygen in the area?.. I don?t know how wise it is to have in the 
cockpit with you.
Personally I  would suggest a dry chem. Extinguisher for electrical fires.
Its more clean up but less chance of consuming your air.
Just MHO

While I?m only 5?9? i have wide shoulders. I widened my fuselage to 43? at the 
outer edge of  the upper longerons.

So modifying is not an issue for me.

KR> Belly board

[Adam Tippin]

the only thing i could see as a variable, would be the wind traveling Up the

if the board is too short, you won?t have any results. Too tall may rip it off 
the roof.
I can?t wait to hear the results.

KR> Belly Board

[Adam Tippin]

 I am not an aero dynamic expert.
I would how ever like to point out that if you look at a golf ball you will 
notice Dimples. These dimples actually decrease drag, by creating a circle 
effect 
just like the bed of a pick up truck with the tailgate up. In a sense, it 
propels the truck forward decreasing drag.
While i don?t trust Mythbusters fully, some of there data is quite accurate. 
This is one of those times that they proved the dimples help.

   Thank you for the detailed response. this really helps make my final

Just one question. Do you need 100% coverage?( excluding area near sanding )? 
or are you suggesting ex. 75% coverage?

Skeleton boat is finished No feathers and low and behold. I find a Nail in one

i have contacted the supplier and they want to make amends?. this letter is not 
to bash the company?It is to remind you that Every one makes mistakes.
This was my mistake. I didn?t inspect the wood before using it.

38" is the KR2S base shoulder  dimensions. Personally I've widened mine to
43" at the shoulder. All this was done without adding more 5/8" square
stock.

with spar or foam.
And for the horns,I see that the leading edges are the same, but how much
further than the H/S do they extend.

KR> Two up?

[Adam Tippin]

I am building my KR2S now with 2 up in mind. This is why I have widened the

KR> WING SKIN

[Adam Tippin]

Tony please allow me to put your mind at ease.
I went through A school and in that class we had a composite section.
We all built individual composition wing sections. 12"x18" ( no vacuum
bagging ).
I can assure you that ( like every school) there were a few less than
desirable students.
During this section even they excelled.
To prove the point we took the worst specimen and asked Tiny if he would be
so kind as to stress test it for us. We all gather around and knew it would
crush.
Mind you, that we used plain jane  Styrofoam ( like the coffee cup stuff).
It held up to Tiny ( one foot all 365 lbs). Then he jumped on it trying to
crush it. The student received his first 100%.
Also there are a lot of comp classes you can sign up for through EAA .

I want to just say thanks to all that ask and answer question/problems. It
makes me feel great that there is support for this build.

I have my own motivation to build my KR2S. Although I've got just the

answers I'll find in the archives.

My motivation stays high with all the updated emails.
So again I say thanks.

KR> Aeroinjector

[Adam Tippin]

I've read up on the aeroinjector from the site. I'm curious about the fact
" with this carb, you wouldn't need a fuel pump. And you have no more need
of carb heat do to not having a venturi or butterfly valve"  is this a carb
or throttle body and would I need a computer to run it? I've sent same
email to arrived. I'm  more apt to accepting the word of my krneters.
