KR> Stick imbalance

Yes, about the same as Jeff reported. I glued a piece of bent aluminum, guessing at the amount of bend needed. When I got it right, I riveted the aluminum piece to the trailing edge of the elevator and filled/sanded/painted and you can hardly tell it is there. See N64KR at

Joe, I can't tell you the length, cause I never measured it. But I can tell you that a KR with 5 X 5 mains, conventional gear, really loves grass. Certainly conventional gear is better for any uneven surface. I landed on grass with both VW 2180 and Corvair 2700 and never had a problem with it.
