"Extended wing, slotted airfoil, Hershey bar wings, longer gear legs..."
I'd be interested in discusion of Hershey bar wings. Is the extra area
worth the effort? Wouldn't that eff
The KR2 is a 7G airplane @ 800lbs. The KR2S has a 3 foot longer wing using
the same spars, no comment about impact on g loading. Gliders are not
designed to pull anywhere near these g loadings. My body won't either.
Extend the wing, don't pile on the weight, use a 1835VW engine, don't pull
the KR aircraft will not be classified under the new light sport aircraft
category.

Extended wings give more lift AND drag. This means a lower stall speed.
Compensate with a smaller engine to achieve the same climb and lower cruise
speed.

It will, at reduced G loading.
