I suppose I will chime in. The KR I any flying has a center stick with the throttle in the left but the mixture in the center. My biggest bark about this setup is that there is little room for adding left aileron, especially when I have the flaps down. However, I don't consider it to be diffic

Which Sonerai would you be able to fly? I suspect that a low wing version is quite similar to a KR2s. However, my only point if comparison is the differences between my somewhat tricky Sonerai I and a Corvair powered KR2S. Between those two, the KR is the easier plane to fly and land. If you c

That is what is left to be determined. There are two mixture screws. The high speed one controls 3/4 throttle to WOT. Search for the carb by name and you will find the manual for it. It describes the tuning and adjustments. Mine will be here on Monday. I will keep you posted. Jeff Sent fro

That is almost the same set of books I use, Steve's manual, Tom Wilson's How to Rebuild Your Volkswagen Air-Cooled Engine and Bill Fishers book. I would think that you would still need some guidance from Revmaster as their front bearing and endplay shim arrangement is different than standard.
