Hi all, I have been looking for some 4"*2" 1/8 ally for making the aileron
control horns but cant find any. Does any one out there know of a supply of it,
or of a substitute that could be used?
Does anyone have a picture of the aileron control horn and its hookup. If so,
you can send it to me off net atairgu...@comcast.net (don't want to creat a

Has anyone used Aileron Push Pull Cables, ( AS they use in the

I'm moving my bell cranks infront of the Rear spar so I can use a Larger

I noticed that on one of my first flights on my first KR. However, it was

one of the rudders, the wing on that side would sharply drop. Because that

Yes, you are supposed to recover from a stall or spin with the rudder;
however, the full length (almost) aileron combined with the tiny short
coupled rudder on the KR makes standard actions not necessarily the best.

Basic responses:
aileron - roll, then turn
rudder - turn then roll
together - coordinated turn

Has anyone looked at the SIZE of a KR aileron...
I can't believe there are problems with aileron response
at low speeds... the darn aileron is nearly the length
of the entire wingspan!
Besides at REAL low speeds, i.e. Slow flight near
the stall... if a wing drops, you are supposed to use
rudder
All,
My KR came as a built unit by Mark Edal. I have inspections dated 1994. He
stretched a KR2 to 16.5' + but kept the KR2 stab and rudder. I can't lift a
wing with rudder as it will increase the drop of the wing. It follows a turn
nicely at 80mph without rudder input. On climbout I put a little r

Jim,
The ailerons are fine ,just the rudder will not lift a wing. I am not sure
if I can spin this bird and will not try. In all other respects she flies
