KR> Speed Brake & Flaps

[Dan Prichard]

I designed the speed brake and flaps to operate separately. Travel time on the 
speed is about 2 seconds to 85 degrees. You can see the flaps operate on 
YouTube. Look for N257DP.  For short field I was planning a spoiler set up as 
you can see in the gathering photos. 
And yes, the plane is still for sale. Lots of tire kickers.

KR> Aileron spar

[Dan Prichard]

I had a few nuts get blocked with resin and flox after attaching the aileron 
spar to the wing. After the resin set I used a 3/32" drill bit to cut through 
the bulk of the overfill then used a tap to clean out the threads. Minimal 
amount of effort.

Gary,  in using the 5048 with wing tanks. Wing weighs 64 lbs each.  I suspect

KR> Fiberglass/Carbon Fiber combo

[Dan Prichard]

Are you using the new airfoil?  If you are, then your rudder post will be 34" s 
above the top longeron or about 44" total. After discussions with Mark L. I 
raise my rudder post up to 40"s making the rudder 50"s overall. I also extended 
the horizontal surface outward. Full width is now 84"s.  Elevator has remained 
the same depth. I'm sure there is some argument about width vs depth because 
the square inch factor would probably be the same. Wider and narrower made more 
sense to me in relation to pitch input.

KR> Thrust line

[Dan Prichard]

I'm not an engineer but I've been in the presence of a few. I was told the 
thrust line is typically in plane with the top longeron.  I set mine at 2.5"s 
below to accommodate the Corvair and the starter. Check out the KRnet Archives. 
Type "thrust line " in the email body section and watch the well of knowledge 
spring out.

KR> Glassing Tiger Gear legs

[Dan Prichard]

I did not thin them out. I dialed in the flex I thought would work by reducing 
the width. I read of an earlier KR2 which the builder simply cut the leg down 
the middle. He said they worked just fine. His KR was a 900 # plane. From that 
point I knew my plane was going towards the 1250 # GW range. Applied some 
simple math and there you go. The flex and deflection seam right. If I find 
them to be to stiff I'll cut the down. If it's not stiff enough I'll use the 
other set of legs I bought and start again. At that price you can experiment 
some.

KR> KR Gathering

[Dan Prichard]

I want to put everyone at ease. I'm not out of pocket on any thing concerning 
the gathering. I did use my money along with the funds sent by Larry to keep 
the gathering machine moving forward. I never felt at risk or uneasy about the 
funds and I was confident the good KR folks would cover the expenses. Donations 
are still coming and Im confident that all the monies sent by Larry and Steve 
will be returned to the gathering fund. I didn't even know there was a fund 
when I volunteered to host this year. It's all working out just fine. Thanks 
for your support.

KR> 2015 Gathering

[Dan Prichard]

Now that things have calmed down a bit I would like to say thanks to all those 
who attended the 2015 Gathering @MMV. It was a pleasure to host this years 
event and hope to see everyone at next years gathering where ever that may be. 
I don't think I could have pulled this off without the help of John Bouyea and 
my wife Marsha. And thanks to all of those who pitched in to help. A special 
thanks to Larry Flesner for taking on the grill and sharing his poems with the 
group. Both Mark Langford and Jeff Scott did a great job in educating the 
masses in fiberglass techniques and weight / balance. Jeff Bertuleit's 
propeller lecture was excellent and very informative as was the presentation 
from Kurt @ Dynon. 
We hope to have a full account of the funds by this weekend. Doesn't look like 
we broke even but we still have 4 shirts to sell and some have promised 
donations. If you would like to donate to the Gathering General Fund you can 
send it through PayPal to my email. Dprich01 at comcast.net

Thanks again for letting me host the 2015 Gathering

KR> KR Gathering

[Dan Prichard]

Looks like the weather forecast for the event will be great. Sunny, winds out 
of the NW and temps in the 70's. Smoke from the wild fires should stay to the 
East of Mt Hood.

KR> Dacron substitute

[Dan Prichard]

If the nylon you're looking at is water or wind resistant then its coated with 
silicone. Don't use that. Any fiberglass supply shop will have some sort of 
peel ply. Prices vary. Tap Plastics, fiber lay, US composites etc. 
I bought mine from a.s after picking up a few samples from local fabric stores. 
The peel ply from a.s has worked the best for me and was cheaper. Good luck

KR> Flying to the Gathering

[Dan Prichard]

Long range weather forecast shows mostly sunny, temps in the upper 70's to low 
80's, evening low near 53.  
Winds will be out of the NW around 10 kts. Looking good. 
We do have some fires in the area with light smoke in the Willamette Valley. 
Just thought you might want to know.

KR> MMV Gathering

[Dan Prichard]

Getting close, 24 days. Things are moving well on this end and the excitement 
is growing. There's still rooms available and plenty of camping space. If your 
not attending and want a shirt or hat just let me know before 17 Aug. I have to 
get the order in to make sure they're available to the attendees. 
I'm setting up a table for smaller things you want to trade, sell or give away 
( no wives or kids please). Being them out and make another builders day.

KR> Fwd: KR Gathering Shirt & Hat

[Dan Prichard]

Good question. I need to rent chairs and tables and some food service 
equipment. Awards, coffee, water and such. Plus we are trying to perpetuate the 
gathering funds for future events. The hats and shirts will pay for themselves 
with a little left over. And I stress "little".  Fortunately the venue is no 
charge to us.

KR> Micro snd Vinyl ester resin

[Dan Prichard]

Paul,  have you tried Tap Plastics "surface curing agent"?  Fiberlay.com makes 
a premixed fiber/vinyl ester putty like mix. I found it extremely useful when I

KR> Measuring vinyl ester resin

[Dan Prichard]

If it's in a tube poke a hole in with a small nail and count the drops. If it's 
in a can pick up an eye dropper at Walgreens and count the drops. Somewhere 
between 8-10 drops per ounce. Try not to mix up more than six ounces at a time 
or it will go exothermic real quick. I picked up a 1 ounce pump and put the 
resin in a 1 gallon jug. 1 pump and 8 drops and let the magic happen. There's 
an additive for the resin that helps the surface cure if it's not covered with 
peel ply or plastic sheet.  I didn't use much.  Had no real problem with 
surface cure.

KR> aircraft radio/ gps recommendation

[Dan Prichard]

After a lot of careful consideration I decided to use a Collins vhf 251. Not to 
heavy and plentiful. I picked 2 for a couple hundred. Slide in and out. Had 
them both checked and are in great shape. Small panel space needed. For a gps I 
picked up a King AV8OR Ace. When first released they sold for over $2k. I got 
mine with card and accessories for $400 new in the box. Lots of features. With 
technology changing every other day any thing new you buy will be outdated 
before you fly your KR. Keep it simple where you can.

Also, if you booked a room at the Motel 6 please follow up on your reservation.

KR> Build space for KR2S

[Dan Prichard]

Gary,  I build just about everything in a 10' x 20' shed.  Built a 28" x 16' 
bench against the wall for the fuselage, spars and tail. Then built another 42" 
x 8' and a 24" x 6' bench to assemble the boat. Fortunately I had the room to 
set up a 10'x20' Costco garage/tent in the back yard on a wood platform. Moved 
the boat to the tent and started assembly. Built the wings in the shed. You get 
used to walking sideways and doubling your tools, because what you need is 
always on the other side. Started my project October 2013. I'm now wiring the 
panel, engine in on, down on the gear. Waiting on prop and Rotec carb. Send me 
your contact info and I'll send you some pics of my set up.

That's what is great about the KR. You can do just about anything you want. 
I've used 1/8" Okome on my fuselage and am very happy with its workability 
weight and strength. I believe it only weighed a few pounds more and it much

KR> Plywood orientation

[Dan Prichard]

You can probably pick up the T-88 locally so you can get it when you need more. 
I also used about 2 quarts. Wood crafters supply carries it. I used 90 degree 
plywood.

KR> Hotel update

[Dan Prichard]

All,  The motel 6 has 21 double queen and 29 single queen rooms as of this 
email. Call Crystal and mention the KR gathering and she'll book you at the 
$76,66 per night rate. That's $20 less than normal for our gathering dates.

KR> KR Gathering Accommodations

[Dan Prichard]

All,  Dan Heath brought up a good point yesterday about keeping the hotel group 
together. I recommend the Motel 6 & Guest House Vineyard Inn. They share the 
same parking lot and are a direct shot to the airport. The Vineyard Inn has 
offered us the Govt rate which will range from $70-100 per night depending on 
how many use the room. When you call ask for Katey and tell her you want the 
government rate. They currently have 31 rooms available. The motel 6 has not 
gotten back to me yet but their rates are already low. 

Book early and often

KR> 2015 Hotel List

[Dan Prichard]

Jeff, because it's over the Labor Day weekend most of the locations were not 
interested in group rates. 
All of the hotels are west of the airport within a 10 minute drive and all 
hotels are within 1 mile of each other. The museum will send a van over to the 
airport and get you there. We will do our best to get everyone moved around. As 
sign up progresses I can evaluate this better. Great question, thanks for 
bringing it up.

KR> McMinnville KR Gathering

[Dan Prichard]

My grand daughter and her cousin are at the Evergreen water park today. I think 
we'll have to pry them out at closing. Water slide out of a 747. Can life get 
any better.

There's a longer YouTube video of the water park after this one. Worth 
watching.

Thanks for the info. I have a Yaesu with vor. I'm looking at a panel mount like

KR> 2015 KR Gathering Update

[Dan Prichard]

All,  I believe we are getting close to launching the gathering site. John 
Bouyea has been working on the mechanics and I've been putting together a hotel 
and RV park list. As stated before the airfield has approved camping and a 
large hanger is at our disposal. 
I have asked Dan Weseman from SPA to speak to us about Corvair stuff and Jeff 
Bertuleit from Props Inc to educate us on wood propellers.  
If you have any suggestions or have something or someone who can make us 
smarter aircraft builders please let me know. Email me at dprich01 at

Not planning to fly IFR but will be through controlled airspace. My transponder

required to have a 8130 for experimental aircraft as long as they are not on 
the FAAs banned list?

KR> designing an engine mount

[Dan Prichard]

Grain,  on the KRnet home page go to Paul Smiths Aussie KR-2s page. Lots of 
good info there.  Also look at Lynn Hyder's page. He mounted an O-235 in his 
narrowed KR2. I looked at his airplane a few months ago at his daughters house. 
Very nice work. I can't find his email. Maybe Mark Langford has it.

KR> Belly board actuators

[Dan Prichard]

My actuator is out of a Honda. Right window 1998. Takes about 3 seconds to 
fully extend and retract. It is powerful to push the airplane up if it hits 
something on the floor. Trust me. Go to YouTube and search N257DP and you can 
see how it's mounted. 
Oh, it cost $30 at the auto wrecker.

KR> Flaps & Spoilers

[Dan Prichard]

Peter,  there's a relay block and overload breaker unit that goes with the 
actuator. Plus I'll protect the circuit with a panel breaker. 
Haven't hooked up the springs yet on the spoilers. Trying to keep it all 
simple. At least from now on.   I'll start closing the wing next week.

Look at the krnet. Lynn Hyder put an o235 on his modified kr2. I saw it a few 
months ago at his daughters house in SW Portland. Wings were sawed off.  He was

KR> NVAreo

[Dan Prichard]

I've had a few conversations with Jeanette Rand over the past few months about 
plans distribution. I can't promise anything, but if you email your contact 
info I'll pass it on to Jeanette for you. Email dprich01 at comcast.com.

KR> fletchair gear legs

[Dan Prichard]

I often joke with the RV guys that I wanted to build a plan, not just assemble 
one. To me, part of this project is the path to discovery. Obviously there are 
certain components of the KR that need to be left alone and others that begged 
to be tweaked. With all the KRs out there successfully flying with countless 
mods only proves the design and reason for its longevity.
Must be why it's called an "Experimental" aircraft. 
I agree with Larry. Just build it. I'm using the Grumman legs with 4130 welded 
brackets. I'm basically following the Diehl design and principles. I'm not sure 
what the optimum flex or amount of deflection should be. I don't have those 
math skills. However, on my KR I've applied the old "apply weight and observe" 
method. I feel comfortable that the size of the Grumman legs I've cut for my KR 
are correct. We'll see. In my observations I've noticed the amount of weight 
take up (absorption) done by the tires proceeds any gear leg deflection. I'm 
inclined to believe tires and tire pressure play a larger role on landing 
characteristics and bounce. 
I remember reading in the old gathering notes & photos of a guy who cut a 
Grumman leg down the middle and installed them. He said they worked great even 
on some very hard landings. 

Of course this is only my story, yours may vary.

KR> Engine Shipping

[Dan Prichard]

Most carriers will not accept an engine unless it's in a box (plywood) and on a 
pallet. When I bought my engine it was shipped from Kansas to Portland Oregon 
via FedEx Freight. Engine and box was 320 lbs. I believe it was around $200.00. 
If you use PayPal book your shipping through them and save. Hope this helps

KR> NVAERO

[Dan Prichard]

Mark,  I would like to have a conversation with you offline. I sent Steve an e 
mail wanting to discuss a possible solution to the NVAERO continuance. I 
haven't had any response. Business wise I'm at a crossroad that might allow me 
to significantly help him an the KR community out. I'm not sure if you can help 
out but I would appreciate your help. I also need to get things moving for our 
next gathering.   A phone number or direct email would be great. 
Thanks

KR> transponder antenna

[Dan Prichard]

I sure hope you weren't taking the acronym as an insult. None intended. I'm not 
sure how much drag is generated by a transponder antenna. Maybe it's just my 
aluminum airplane days talking.
