Is the gross weight the same for the KR2s as for the KR2? The KR2 plans show
900 lbs. I suspect it would be more for the KR2s, but haven't found it. I did
use the search engine and find the answer to how to do fuel flow on an engine
driven fuel pump and some information on the climb angle.
There are some videos on youtube of an Italian KR doing gentle aeros.

This is a little off of the subject but do any of you guys do aerobatics in
your KRs? Seems they'd be capable w/ that g-rating

There are a lot of people that know m
Certified to, but designed for 3 more G's if I recall correctly. So they
would be designed to 6.8G's.
Someone else might know more than me though.

I remember reading about ML's experience in an RV6 which sounded very
similar.

A friend of mine took me for a ride in an RV 4 built by himself, his
brothers and their dad. It had a big engine and a constant speed prop.
I don't recall the engine size or designation, but it seemed huge.

Yes. The motor has nothing to do with it. It is a factor of the
structures capability to support the weight.

Hi Guys,
The kr2s that I am building should actually be a kr2ss. The problem is this,
due to the fact that everything is a bit bigger, the empty weight is obviously
higher too. How do I determine the gross weight?
Fuselage - 17.55 ft
Wings (incl winglets) - 24.18 ft
KR Heads;
Just a short note to advise all Candian builders that I have now received
approval from Transport Canada to operate my KR2S aircraft at 1150 lbs gross
weight.( first in Canada , I believe)
Many thanks to all the KR pilots on this site that provided testimonials on
their US based airc
KR Heads,
I have made an application to Transport Canada ( the CDN version of the FAA) to
increase my allowable gross weight to 1150 lbs ( up from the published 980) on
my KR2S.
In revewing my application , they have asked if anyone else is flying at this
weight? I know for a fact that many US

Chris,
Dan Diehl may be able to get you in touch with Marty.
There is a time for building and a time for flying, and the time for
building has long since expired.

I don't have the exact answer, but I was going to call the inspector I was
dealing with at the FSDO about my plane and ask about upping my gross also.
One thing I do know is that he needs to check the existing operating
limitations. N4DD had the operating limitations issued a long time ago, but
Step one - buy the entire Aircraft (AC) components as manufactured parts
- make a list each major kit component purchased
(i.e - Fuselage, Canopy, Instrument Panel, Wings, Engine, ect)
- use a Bill of Sale listing the AC as parts, project and kit
items
Step two -
Tonight I heard from Rick Lanning, the new owner of Dan Diehl's N4DD KR2.
He's about to reregister it, and had this question. The plane weighs 721
pounds now with the 0-200 in it, and it holds about 30 gallons of fuel.
With a passenger he's going to be way over the gross weight called out in
