Mark or anyone who wishes comment. I'm no aircraft engineer or I will ask what may be a silly question. What would happen if the rear main spar was moved to the position noted for the new AS5048 ( 1 inch above the longerons) but still used the standard KR2 wing .

I think what you are asking is do I think the KR2 (or even 2S) has too much incidence, and I personally think it does, especially if you are going as fast as most do these days. I don't think it would hurt a bit to lower it a degree, and maybe even two on the faster ones. Mine is set up for 1 degree of incidence, and 2 degrees of washout, using the AS5046. We'll see how it goes. Of course my horizontal stabilizer is set to negative .75 degrees too, and I have the option of moving it to anywhere I want to trim things up like I want them later on. I would think if you lowered the incidence of the main wings, you'd need to lower the incidence of the h/s as well, but that has yet to be proven. Somebody needs to build an adjustable h/s and prove the best angle, kinda like I'm going to do with the AS5046.

I had a look at a newly finished Corby Starlet a few weeks ago, it is just about to have its Cof A done. They have a beaut Adjustable H/S, it has four alum brackets and bolts through from top to bottom ( two each side of the fuse. and adjustable by shims front or rear. very neat and simple.

If you have pictures of Corby (or the builder of the KR with one), I (and I m sure others) would very much like to see the setup. Thanks in advance, Gene in Wyoming When you give a lesson in meanness to a critter or a person, don't be surprised if they learn their lesson. ---Original Message--- From: KRnet List-Post: krnet@list.krnet.org Date: 05/10/04 03:59:54 To: KRnet Subject: Re: KR>new airfoil instructions- Adjustable H/S Mark Wrote Somebody needs to build an adjustable h/s and prove the best angle, kinda like I'm going to do with the AS5046.
