To some degree, flying a KR for the first time is kind of like bowling. A little right or left curve on the ball, a little top or bottom english, all can change the direction of a KR. Think right or left and it goes, not much stick movement. Up takes some movement of the stick, down - not much, just move your head or body forward. An aerial sports car indeed they are! The aircraft is shorter coupled than certified aircraft. Length and width. Full span ailerons in a stiff cross wind, can be at best teasing. If you want to hop and skip sideways across a runway, try a 15 mph direct crosswind on landing until it is planted. Tail wheel slides can happen, main gear skips, all you will learn to deal with in your current flying time. Its a great aircraft to fly, learn about flying, meat a great group of like minded friends and have ton's of fun with. Several K hours of KR fun to date and more to come! Steve
