Hey guys, I can't elaborate on anything shorter than a KR2SS since that's all I've flown. I lengthened my 2S by 14" and because I was building ( in my mind ) for less drag and more speed I decided to use the original plans size 2S tail feathers. So I have the AS5048 new wing design up front and the original flat tail in the rear. I have flown my girl to all over the country and I have no complaints. That being said, this is not a Piper or Cessna. You have to fly the plane and I'm fine with that. I once flew with a guy that filled out his log book while on autopilot. You are not going to do this in a KR. I just don't see what all the fuss is about, I've flown with Mark with his short KR2 for thousands of miles and he always manages to get it back down safely.... In closing, if you want to be able to do 150 mph on 5 gallons an hour and don't mind having to fly the plane, the KR is a great plane.... If you want the comfort of a plane that flies itself and is virtually idiot proof on landing, the KR should not be your first choice.
