version

My KR is pretty much a stock, plans built plane. What are your questions?

to run
conventional oil. I run premium non-ethanol unleaded all the time except
when flying cross country. That?s why the blend.

It will be interesting to see how your DPD heads hold up.

Has anyone tried these heads from CB Performance? They look like they have
better air flow around the exhaust ports and maybe better quality control?

ler rudder. It was added after initial
construction by "scabbing" onto the existing rudder with fiberglass, and
then overhanging the vertical stabilizer, which effectively gives me
even more rudder.

That is exactly what I'm considering for My KR. I like real world
running
out of aileron. Could be there is not as much deflection before hitting the
stops. I'll do some measuring on my KR.

Flying is not cheap. Neither is boating, fishing, golf and just about any
hobby you try. No matter what engine you pick it will cost between $5
it to the airport for
the first flight, so I am not sure if there was any gain. It climbs, turns
and flies great. Maybe I'll pull them off sometime and check the performance
without them. Or maybe not.

Roger: what don't you like about the speedometer cable adjustment of the
mixture? Is it not fine enough? You could add a small lever arm to the
mixture screw and make the mixture adjust by push-pull with a standard
vernier type mixture knob. Depending on how long you made the lever you
to continue using the Tillotson, but I am trying to come up with a
better mixture control, than a speedometer cable.

I'm slow at responding, but I have a engine mount the looks like the one
Mark is using hanging in my storage shed. If it could be used I give to
Keith for the shipping. It came off my old KR2.

Yes, I did forget something. There was an AirEvac helicopter, in the
air, waiting for Roger Bulla to plant his KR in a nearby bean field,
then picked him up and flew him to the hospital. I can't take credit
getting the cowl on and off without scraping the coating off. I'll have to
go through my records to come up with the name of the company.

stay more constant throughout the full throttle range,
and it enriched the top end to acceptable levels. Of course I didn't have a
Mixture Meter to see instantaneous readings only an EGT, but it seemed to
work. There is a lot of black magic going on in an intake system.

While I am, here how the hell do anyone tune a revflow carby I can tune the
mix at the needle to run smooth at full throttle soon as i pull it back
years ago. My
present KR has stock flaps and there is a big change in nose down pitch when
deployed.

I'm about to h
for a longer prop. With the 54 inch prop, and
in a level attitude I have 14 inches of ground clearance but I am not sure what
combination of pitch and length will work best.
Its Great to be back in the air. These little planes will keep you grinning.

I hope to make it to the gathering by commercial flight this year, but depends
on some family matters.

, just to tall.
On the my KR I have the plans built sling seat and canopy. I lowered the
sling seat by changing the attach point to where they just clear the torque
tube for the flaps. It will give me enough head room to be able to
comfortably fly the plane.

resources on fixed
gear would be a better way to go. My new kr project has Rand fixed gear. If
you still want to pursue the retracts I have the stock gear legs, wheels,
mechanical brakes and tires that you are welcome to. Email me if want them.

Paul,
I flew my KR for 20 years with some cheep automotive battery cable that was
thick strand wire. Same problems, hard starting especially in the winter. I
had an older
ing around for another KR finished or a project.
The Kr is a great aircraft and just a lot of fun to fly and work with. I never
kept track, but I probably had 200 - 300 hours maintaining and improving my KR
over the years.
For those of you building or considering a KR, GO!! It is well worth it.
Roger
