What?? KR's need all the drag they can get when on final and still going fast. Jim Morehead put a huge bellyboard on his with a really solid extension/retraction mechanism. --------------------------------------
I have a more or less standard KR2,TRI-gear 100HP reduction VW type 4. I have made my flaps similar to the plans but wider on the inboard wing only. It is GREAT, I hardly use the 3rd stage, I have NO problems slowing it down, I do not know much about the tail dragger KR but I just hold the nose up or( trim nose up)and use power to get to the runway, or almost stall it onto the ground, fantastic. I touch down about 45 to 50 kts. I now have over 500 hours ( as Maxwell Smart says, " and Loving it") I do not know what all the fuss is about??? I guess the tail dragger would have problems stopping the tail wheel hitting to early. But the tri-gear is great to land. High cross winds not problems. Maybe you just have to look down the side and pretend it is a P40 or Mustang with a high nose landing?? All the best, just fly safe.
