KR> AS504x wing skins

I just finished reading the airfoil section you cited. Thank you, very helpful. And great to know that such collaborative development has taken place, with great results. Exactly what the Experimental Certification was designed for. > Date: Wed, 14 Jan 2015 16:44:40 -0600 > To: krnet at

I like making things myself. The KR airplane is so simple that I don't think you need any parts that are prefab. I certainly wouldn't buy the skins as the new KR airfoil would be faster anyway. Landing gear is easy to make. Wheels and brakes...maybe Tracy Obrien or find someone who has

And I should mention that Steve Glover at nvAero has spent a lot of time and money making a set of molds to build wingskins for the new airfoil, so thanks to him, you can now buy a set of skins if you don't want to build them. They are primarily for the 2S, I think, another reason to start

H, is there room betyween the prop disc, and the ailerons, on a KR1? I also wonder what a split condition would do, could the ailerons overcome that? As to the jets using them after touchdown, apparently they also use them in flight. I found a youtube video of that, passenger was filing

KR> NVAero KR1 fuselage kit?

2015-01-14 Thread Chris Prata
I looked over the very nice nvaero site. It appears that there is not a fuselage wood or fiberglass kit for the KR1. (not popular?) so I guess that means plans build. It is great that the wing skins, landing gear/wheels/brakes, canopy, wing attach fittings, control stick, are avail. What about

2015-01-14 Thread Ronald Wright
HI Larry, Not sure what you mean by "the KR is not a design that call for spoilers"? They definitely kill LIFT which takes care of the "floating problem" of the KR.. They would work on any airplane when placed in the proper location. I've got several Moni motorgliders which utilize them and

Couple things, I have a Jab 2200 on my current plane (Avid Mk4). I was thinking of selling the avid and purchasing everything needed to build a KR1 with the proceeds. One of my EAA buddies remarked "no one builds those anymore". To me, that means nothing. The KR has great looks, performance,
