The KR2 will bobble around a bit in rough conditions, but I don't think that any amount of tail surface would do anything to remedy that situation. I believe that it is due to the short coupling. I believe that the 2S improved on the short coupling, made it less short, and that is what made that situation less of a situation.

I believe the longer tail moment of the stretch took care of that. Doug Rupert Simcoe Ontario In Jack Lambie's book "Composite Construction for Homebuilt Aircraft" he writes about flying with Ken Rand in the KR-2 - "The nose waggle when you move the stick indicates not enough vertical fin area, but in general has a nice responsive feel."
