Joe,
Maybe a stupid question, but are those NACA airscoops fore of the fuselage
widest point?
Mine are slightly aft, and therefore in a low pressure area, and this is
why they don't work.
My plan is to do exactly what you describe: make a flap that stretches in
the airstream when you open the NACA airscoop. But that's low on my list
of priorities, so I haven't done the design yet.

Guys,
I have the NACA ducts on the side of the KR and they work fine on
the ground for taxi and even sitting still, but as soon as I reach flying
speed almost no air comes in through them. I remember seeing someone's at
the Gathering a couple years ago that had some sort of slide or something
that popped out to pick up air from the slipstream. Anyone remember them
or have any ideas???
