I didn't see an answer to your question so I'll toss out my opinion. You are probably pretty close to right. Your tail weight will increase considerably with pilot / passenger. Your tail weight will also increase as the tail comes down due to the wheel moving forward in relation to the CG. Most conventional gear KR's are light on the tail in the level attitude. I'm assuming you have the wings attached. Without the wings attached it may actually tip on it's nose. Larry Flesner
