The common target for our KR is light and fast.
That being said, the less surface area, the less drag. An L shaped corner has
more surface area than a concave "(" shape of same height/length.

I'd probably do it much like before, except (as I mentioned on the
website) I'd run the wing skins all the way to the fuselage and use a
small micro fillet on the

HA! After reading my own stub wing website, I did say that about an
airplane...Nemesis, and then recommended exactly what Pete mentioned...a
simple micro fillet between the joints. It's a good thing I did this
website...so I'd know how to build my next one the fast and "good enough

I'm confused as to the necessity of large radius' at the wing root. I recently
read that Mark Langford noted that Strega does not have large radius fillets.
You'd think they would have them as they are trying to squeeze every mph that
they can from that airframe. Neither do the RV

The ideal faring would expand at the trail edge of the wing, a low
