  1. So far it climb's out 1000fpm at 65ias, at 5000rpm it cruises at 80 ias. stall right at 40. It does jump off the ground only 5400rpm full throttle,at 4000ft elev.


  2. Don't you lose your man card if you put a training wheel on a KF or Avid?

  3. FWIW  I changed out the droop tips on a KF4 , and saw no difference in performance, but did get a better view and quit banging my head ,when I walked around the plane.

  4. FWIW I had a hirth in a KF2 3 engine failures in a engine that suppost to not seize! I do have a lot of 2 stroke experience ie racing MX motorcycles for year's and running a rotax 582 in a KF3, stay away from hirth unless you like deadstick landings.


  5. The view comment was for the KF4, and all the other high wing planes I have flown with them, my cousin damaged the wing tip on my KF4 and I replaced the tip's like I said just my 2 cent's but I agree that I wouldn't change them if there already on.


  6. Oh I also took the droop tip's off my KF4 and put on the removeable tip's no difference in performance, I flew it off a 300ft remote control airport at 4000ft elevation very high DA's in summer.


  7. Guy's FWIW I flew agtruck's for 25 year's Cessna 188's with and without the drooptips drooptip's are good for limiting your view and for banging your head and that's about all. And we did do side by side testing to see which plane worked best.


  8. the super is a little bigger than the skyraider2 and has dual controls, the reinforcement I was talking about is in the spar about where the struts attach.


  9. Sweet! I knew it would work!

    My friend  Skeeter is putting one in his mosquito, here in El Paso TX. hope it works better than the POS. MZ he had.
