this is interesting. LSA specs say 51MPH max stall speed without using flaps.
I looked up the specs, and the KR1 easily meets the stall speed specs at 45MPH
stall. (so with fixed gear, modest power and and a climb prop, I will be all
set to fly under LSA rule)
The KR2 is published as 52 MPH stall

Steve,
I have a KR-2 built to plans except I used the Diehl wing skins. These use
the RAF48 airfoil. The total wing span is 23 feet 6 inches. Using the wing
skins, the front and rear wood spars are extended using the 16-inch
fiberglass spar sandwich in the Diehl kit; this is the same material
Hi Steve,
I'm trying to come up with a valuation for a KR2 and I was curious what you
paid for your KR. I really don't have a clue what the going price is for
an excellent KR2 is. Any idea?

RR says not to extend the wings. Do the engineering before doing so,

Steve,
The extended wing is the KR2S design. The spars are built with webbing
on the front and back where the KR2 only has it on one side. To extend the
wings you would have to change the spars to KR2S design and basically build
a new wing. I had the same objective as you and am putting KR2S w
