Hi everyone,
Just a tip for those building their boat stage:
Because my project is now 12 years old, I decided to start from scratch again.
I built my complete boat less skins over the last 4 weeks (mostly after hours
only).
I've seen many suggestions for clamping the gusset blocks - here is
Hi everyone,
Another tip for those building their boat stage:
I extended my top longeron doublers all the way to the tail. This allowed me to
layout and build the complete top boat section on a pressed wood template,
including all of the cross braces and gussets.
Once this was done, it was a

Hi Mike,
I've posted this before (twice already!)
This is what you can seemingly do with the type IV. Weight should be a little
over 200 lbs. My type IV without any manifolds, flywheel, starter, altenator,
ignition or carb weighs 145 lbs.

Hi all,
I've asked all South African KR2 owners if anyone flies his KR2 regularly with
two up and the short answer I received was NO! I find this hard to believe and
would like the opinion of other KR2 flyers all over the world on this so that I
can share with those in South Africa.

Do you perhaps any other flying videos of your KR2S? If so, please be so kind
as to provide the links to those. I thoroughly enjoyed watching your video!

I purchased a semi completed KR2S without any plans. In order to register it, I
need a new set of plans with a serial number. Can anyone give me a direct link

Hi KRNetters,
For starters, I gain 80 to 100lbs by my engine choice alone. Next, I'll have
only the most basic instruments. My wider canopy will weigh nearly the same as
most as I'm going to use thin Mylar for windows with a centre post down the
middle front. VG's are known to reduce stall spee
Hi everyone,
Don't crucify me, this is only a question. I am able to lay my hands on a good

P, you're going to need bigger fuel tanks for the same
range, which makes for more weight on top of the heavy engine. ?There are a lot
of trade offs to consider.

Hi gents,
Thank you for your reply. Mark, I hear your point & will give it some serious

inboard only and full width to the rear spar. I'm sure I can convert that into
