I have wondered what affect these long wings will have. My first KR had stock wings and the wingspan on this one is about 4.5 feet longer. If I don't like the way it behaves, after I get it flying, the option to clip the wings is available. I am also concerned what affect these long wings are going to have on the speed of the plane.

All you have to do is research the GeeBee from the 1930s to know that the above is true. It also points out the problems that come with extended wings.
