There was a lot of talk a few days ago about long wings on the kr2. Did anyone
come to conclusion? I talked to Jenett a few years ago about long wings like
the ones that can be built for the kr1 and she said absolutely not. Just
thought i'd bring it up. Well after a long sleep my KorvaiR 2 proje
We are talking about the Diehl wings, which have been used on many KRs over
many years with no problems.

See you in Mt. Vernon - 2006 - KR Gathering
There is a time for building and a time for FLYING and the time for building
is OVER.

I have wondered what affect these long wings will have. My first KR had stock
wings and the wingspan on this one is about 4.5 feet longer. If I don't like
the way it behaves, after I get it flying, the option to clip the wings is
available. I am also concerned what affect these long wings are

More lift = more drag. Land slow, fly slow.

Is that a KR-2 ?? Virg

Yes, both planes that I referred to are KR2. The first one had stock wings,
this one has the Diehl wings which have about a 24.5' wingspan. My impression
of it, is that it is too long, but we will see what we will see.

I wonder how the stall speed compares between the stock wing and the Diehl wing
skin wings. I think I need a belly board cause I think this thing is going to
float forever.

How close are you now to your initial flight test? Do you have the engine
back in?

More lift may not mean more drag, the increased skin friction drag will
be off set by the reduced induced drag.

Did you engineer the "G" loads for the center spar ?Virg

Get your speed right and it will not float, Virg
