Description
The KR-211B is an original design based on various general aviation light aircraft. It is a KR-211A refitted with a radial engine for more torque and high payloads.
I built it a while ago, before the smaller parts where added. Also still uses an older Altitude reader.
features basic instruments in the cockpit, the grey switch shows flap position, the red one is for the wheel brakes.
The take-off flap stage increases lift for a slight loss in speed. You can also use it for slow flying. The landing stage increases lift and drag alot and will therefor also limit speed.
You shouldn't taxi faster than 20km/h to avoid tipping over in turns.

Updated with an enlarged vertical stabiliser and some more internal vertical surface area to make it more horizonally stable.

  • top speed: 78 km/h
  • minimum speed: 38 km/h
  • weight: 176.34 kg
  • maximum payload: 125kg
  • dimensions: 3.78m x 5.98m x 1.33m
  • Partcount: 87

  • 0.4:1 scale
  • speed, height and roll indicator instruments
  • pitch, roll and yaw trim with reset button
  • Takeoff & Brake stage flaps
  • hold/toggle wheel brakes
    outside brake indicators (red markers on landing gear)
  • slight ground yaw stabilisation through wheelbraking
  • Ground steering
  • High payload and low minimum speed

    Controls:

    Pitch- W / S
    Roll - A / D
    Yaw - Q / E
    Throttle - LShift / LCtrl
    Flaps - C / V
    ⇢ Once for takeoff mode
    ⇢ Twice for landing mode
    Brakes - Space
    ⇢ double tab to toggle
    camera - 1

    Pitch Trim - T / G
    Roll Trim - F / H
    Yaw Trim - R / Y
    Reset Trims - U

Updated for more yaw stability, although its still weak enough for low-speed control.

This plane's small vertical stabilizer really hinders its yaw stability.
