Basically, I would fly it just like the helicopters I flew in the Navy. I always flew it with wrist on kneeboarding and lots of very small rapid inputs, especially in a hover. I have a good contact down here in the DFW area. Will go see his plane soon and am looking at one for sale in the area.

Support your arm on your leg or center console, etc., and use "wrist" movement only. Once in the air it takes VERY LITTLE stick movement to fly the KR, simple light pressure on the stick. Amazing flier when flown correctly. Over control and it can scare the hell out of you. Larry Flesner -- KRnet mailing list [email protected] https://list.krnet.org/mailman/listinfo/krnet
