DUMBO had spoilers and a GAW (?) airfoil. Check the Newsletters.
I got into a WHOLE lot of trouble mentioning DUMBO before. It
was built in Marietta (?) Georga, Virg

Spoilers are used primarily on gliders to kill excess lift in order

Have spoilers been installed and used on a KR1?
Where? Outer or inner wing? Do spoilers blanket ailerons with turbulent air?
On apch, I wonder if you'd pull the nose up when spoilers deployed to create a
'dirty' configuration?
Anyone here running spoilers and or belly brake? Pics?
Thx

I would place spoilers on the winglets to not interfere with control
surfaces.

I like the spoiler concept. Easy to install. Between a belly board and spoilers
we should stop in a hurry.?
My question is; do we put holes in the spoilers to make them more efficient or
not?
Just kidding about the holes,?

Flaps? Are they fairly easy to build in and are they effective? Also
wondering about the Belly Brake option. This design is slippery, I'd love to
have another choice manage the energy on approach besides a forward slip or
slowing down way back at the start of downwind. I'd rather have the

You shouldn't need a belly board if installing spoilers. The spoilers will
definitely stop any floating..

The KRs really need SPOILERS.. They are much better than flaps and a lot
easier to build/install. Close a spoiler and you are instantly flying again.
Dump a flap and you sink first and then get to climb again. Personally, I love
spoilers!

I think what Chris means is one less thing to go wrong on landing. Making this
decision when I first started building was a no brainer for me and I choose to
have Tri-gear from the beginning. Chris is doing the right thing by questioning
and evaluating his own abilities and then configuring his
You may be mistaken about the one less thing. My opinion is that it is one
more thing to go wrong. I have never heard of a broken tail wheel causing a
serious accident, but certainly have heard of several where the nose wheel
broke. A fixed gear KR1 would be a very simple machine to fly,
Hi All,
I could search the newsletter archive, but figured I'd throw it out here.
Is there a fixed tri-gear option for the KR1?
I'm not tail wheel trained. Trigear would mean one less thing that can go wrong
since the KR1 is somewhat tricky to land anyway from what I am reading.
Thanks!
