Hi, My KR2 has the original retractable gear which has been fixed in place. See bottom of http://users.tpg.com.au/barryk/KR2.htm page for pictures how it is mounted.
The CofG is right at the forward limit with full fuel and me in the aircraft. I only have 2.2Kg (4.9lbs) on the tail wheel when sitting empty, tail down on a level surface. When I pick the tail up it wants to fall on it's nose. If I put fuel in the header tank it will probably fall forward (not game to try). Is this normal? If not what weight should I have on the tail wheel? Can someone please tell me the distance of wheel axle to the leading edge when in the flying attitude so I can check mine.
