Given that, I don't
think that even Burt Rutan would consider adapting a VariEze (K2) or a
Starship (K3) into an AirBus form factor ...

etc, all these make the radio impractical for portable use.
The large screen display provided by these high end radios are not
It seems to be that a bigger K3 is a different radio then the K3 and should be
called something different. No, not even K3A or whatever.
I probably would not buy one though. I like my K3 as it is. If there is some
