GV Yes and no!! If you already have the plans for a KR1, deal with that. I would suggest adding two feet to the lenght of the fuselage, putting in a side stick control so that you could sit directly on the floor to give you more headroom, You'll have to glass up the floor for strenght and you still may have to raise the canopy a bit, tho this might ruin the clean lines of the plane. Also tilt the seat back a few degree more so that the headroom increases. No on the 1600 engine. If you have that engine, it is a suitable start,...converting to 1835cc. Are the KR2 plans that much more expensive than the KR1? Better go in that dirextion and narrow the fuselage down to size desired. 205 lbs.?? Shoot, taint nutt'n!
