Did I read that right Mark? Rolls? :) Did you do anything special to beef up the structure or is it fine as it is for simple aerobatics? I see the KR-2 plans say + or - 7G, but what about the KR2S? Brad Payne www.n494bp.com bradleyspa...@gmail.com

If you do it right, you should not impose more than 1g on the airframe in a roll. Jeff On 3/12/07, Larry Flesner wrote: > At 07:50 AM 3/12/2007, you wrote: > >For my own knowledge were does the # 5600 come from. > +++ > > + / -

How many Gs you will see if you don't do it right depends on how bad you botch the maneuver. I wouldn't have any concerns about rolling a KR, but I have some aerobatic experience. I would not recommend rolling anything until you get a few hours of aerobatic training first. Brian Kraut

That would be 2Gs We are at 1G just sitting here. I have loop, rolled, spun and even got my KR in a tale skid (pulled to hard while to far back in CG). It will straighten out with very little effort. Get some altitude and have fun. Thanks Larry --- J L wrote: > If you do

Actually, I meant 1g, or as in you should pull nothing over 1g in an axial roll. In other words, you would not "pull" anything, just maintain 1g all the way around. Sorry for the lack of clarity. Jeff On 3/12/07, Randy Smith wrote: > That would be 2Gs We are at 1G just
