Yes, there were quite a few analysis done on the KR and references and part
excerpts can be found in the KR newsletter. I also know that the plans in the
past have been slightly updated to reflect the "weak" points (as found in the
analysis) in the design, which were a reinforced web structure a

The KR2S is designed to accept the 100 hp 0-200, and I heard Bill Marcy
(contracted structural engineer for RR) say that it could handle more at the
Oshkosh KR forum one year. Maybe I'll see if he can drop by this year too.
Thanks for clearing that up Mark. If you see Stu see if she'll handle 180 HP
please. Weight wise that 13B Mazda is real hard to turn my back on. Yeh I
know increased weight with reduction unit but with that kind of power I
can't see it as much of a problem since if I decide to go that route the

nment [taxed money].
Stu Robinson should have had all the engineering knowledge tools to do the
job.

I beg to differ, I was under the understanding that the KR was actually a
scaled down version of a larger GA aircraft, right down to the RAF airfoil.
(I think this info came from Mr

between the longerons to control where the failure occurs so you don't end
up with an engine in your lap?

part of the analysis?

I would imagine that back in the 70s it was a bunch of hand written data and
calculations. I suspect that even if you had it you would need to be a
structural engineer to understand it and in that case you could probably redo
it on a computer in less time than reviewing what Ken did.

Hello KRnetters,
You want to see analysis, take a look at my web site ;).
