That is better than I would expect. Must have been a light weight KR with no electrical system?

It flew just fiine for about 8 years on this engine until I upgraded it to an 1835. Climb was 700 to 800 fpm, cruise was about 130 mph. I am 6'2 and weighed about 205 at the time. Empy weight of the KR-1 was right at 500 lbs. Steve Bennett
