Tim, I don't know about the plans. I'm building a standard kr-2, and I don't know the difference in the plans. My plans for the tri-gear came with my landing gear (I believe the nose gear assembly). I have noticed a lot of gaps in my plans as well. It seems a lot has to be interpreted, and for that I have used the search function on krnet a LOT!!!
Sorry I can't be more help, Derek Lewis ---------- Original Message ---------- From: "Tim Caughron" <caugh...@bak.rr.com> To: <kr...@mylist.net> Subject: KR> Plans lacking details List-Post: krnet@list.krnet.org Date: Sat, 13 Aug 2011 23:52:57 -0700 Hi guys, sitting down tonight to plan the layout of my fuselage. Now, I love logic puzzles, and am pretty good at them, but this is ridiculous. I'm hoping someone can take a minute and check to see that I have a full inventory of plans here. I purchased plans KR-2 #9809/KR-2S #1196 in January 2005 from RR. Maybe I'm crazy, or just need to make up some dimensions, but I cannot figure out some of these. For instance, looking at the Horizontal Framing Layout on Dwg A for the 2S, it only gives me the width locations of Stn's A, D, and G. It shows the max width between F & G and straight from Stn I. Nowhere does it give me the width of Stn O, or any other location that would allow me to figure the correct dimensions. I looked through every page in my manual, and the best it does is tell me to refer to the plans for all the correct dimension of the layout??? Can anyone tell me if there is a dimension sheet for all the called out parts on the drawings? Seems there should be a reference to say Station A - O are xx inches in length, or there should be some key dimensions to allow one to figure those out. At the very least, the plans should tell me how wide the aft end of the longerons should be dimensioned - come on! Another cause for concern with my plan set is I plan to build a tri-gear version. Nowhere on any drawing is tri-gear addressed, and the manual deals only with tail-gear details - no mention of tri-gear period! I'm sure the situation is worse the farther from simply laying out the fuselage frame I will get. Am I missing something here? Here is an inventory of the plans I received with this set, if someone notices something missing, please let me know so I can try to contact Jeanette and get them, thanks: KR-2 Drawings Dwg 1 - Fuselage Assy. Dwg 2 - Inboard / Outboard Wing Template, Flap Hardware & Assembly Firewall Template - Full Scale KR-2S Drawings Dwg A - Framing Layouts Dwg B - Various Details Firewall Template - Full Scale W1 - Spar Details W2 - Wing Details W3 - Airfoils Thanks to anyone that can help me. Maybe I shouldn't be so concerned with every detail, but this seems like an awful lot of guessing.
