Okay, Let's jog some memories. I know the engine of choice for a Kr-2 is a VW or any engine greater than 65 Hp.
My question is were there any flights made with lower Hp engines? My real question is - what is the absolutely lowest Hp engine that will lift this plane (kr2) off the ground? Authors note: don't care how slow it is. Not going anywhere.
