Most of what I find on the web regarding winglets has to do with sailplanes,
which are at the slow end of the speed spectrum.  KRs operate at
considerably higher speeds, so I'd wonder if  there's not a compromise
somewhere without actual testing on a KR.  I might be talked into testing
that later on, as wing tips is something I'd like to experiment with later,
once I'm flying and have some performance numbers to work with.  For those
who want to do more research, see
