KR> Landing Gear legs

2016-08-31 Thread Global Solutions
Hi Folks
I was looking in to the landing gear for a Kr2S. The boat is going to be 
6" wider then the stock plans.
I was looking at the NVaero site and they have the castings for the Deli 
gear which because they have no picture I am guessing I would still need 
to make the actual legs. they also do not specify if the castings they 
sell are priced each or for the pair.
I then came across this which is made from Material: 7075-T6 Aluminum
KR2 One Piece Landing Gear
The airport I have access to for the moment is a grass strip and I was 
thinking the aluminum may act as a bit of a shock suppressor and may be 
lighter then the wood/glass that others have used.
Would I be ahead to bend something like this in the press brake or go 
the Deli Gear route?

Also I was thinking of going with MATCO brakes as per NVAERO or am I 
better off with Cleveland or some other brand. I also noted on Mark 
Landfords site that he played with wheel sizes. What is the overall 
consences with respect to tire size?

Thanks
Stan

KR> VW Engine

2016-08-31 Thread James McGauhey
I'm helping a friend whose father died and left a VW engine in the garage.
He built, flew and sold a homebuilt, and this seems to be a backup engine
left over.  I don't know about size, condition, or any details.  You can see
some photos at

w.JPG



It is in the Seattle area.  There is no documentation or log.  We're not
sure about value.  I figure somewhere $1K to $2.5K.  I'd rather not be in
the middle, but contact me and I'll put you in direct contact with her.

KR> KR roll over protection

2016-08-31 Thread Doran Jaffas
Thanks.  I am planning to use aircraft heavy wall tubing or even more
abrasive...steel...wondering how they are being set. I do not want to drill
into my rear spar. Suggestions? The force of a roll over can be many times
the weight of an aircraft. A friend has a brake lock on his Mustang and he
went over. He was fortunate. He recovered from a broken neck and rebuilt
his bird. I don't really want that to happen.
