Don't question your decision to build a KR. My KR is as easy to fly as anything I've flown in 1300+ hours of flight time. I had very little tail wheel time before first flight on the KR but that did not turn out to be a problem. My KR handles on the ground as good as or better than a castering nose wheel airplane that uses brakes for directional control. It simply goes where you point the nose. If the gear is set up correctly and the airplane flown properly, a tail dragger is no more difficult to fly than other types of gear. Relax and keep building. Larry Flesner
