well you could mention how Ken Rand crashed a KR1 by *playing a drone* with it

I would have some concerns about the torque moment of a rearward offset on the
bolts going through the unidirectional glass gear legs. The Cessna 120/140
gear legs were steel. I don't know how the unidirectional scotchply legs will
stand up to that, but I would have some concern about them spl

If the tri-gear leg has two tapers, that begs the question: which
taper
It is readily apparent as one side of the taper fits the contour of the
mounting bracket perfectly.

All I know is that when my friend ordered the new trigear set from Diehl we
were sent the one side taper one side straight set. I assumed they were all
like that.
If I had a choice who wouldn't want the double taper! LOL

Thanks for the input on the Cessna 120 gear legs.
I have done weight and balance on my KR-2 (and on Larry Flesner's also).

Mark,
Your statement below reminds me of my old Cessna 120. The Cessna 120 could
nose over if the right situation arose probably mostly from applying too much
braking by the pilot. Several 120s I have seen over the years had a horizontal
steel bracket bolted to the normal axle bolt holes. This

Is your gear the standard Diehl tri-gear setup? I'm wondering why
other tri-gear builders aren't having the same problem. Are you

You can see a more readable version of this at

As far as airframe goes, I can only suggest what I've done. I have
personally chosen to go with 43" wide at peak. AS5048-AS5046 airfoil plus
ML's tail foils. 14" aft and 2" forward. Tail dragger.
Try this. See attached doc.
