The KR-2, a miniature two-seater aircraft designed by Ken Rand in the early '70s, was an advanced version of his successful KR-1 Experimental. This homebuilt plane featured side-by-side seating for pilot and passenger, powered by a VW or Porsche inline engine with 75 to 90 hp and a fixed pitch 2-blade propeller. Its cruise speed reached 120 mph, while its stall speed was approximately 40 mph. The KR-2 is noteworthy for being one of the smallest two-seat airplanes ever constructed, with a wooden truss and plywood fuselage, wood wing structure, and composite wing skins made from micro-bead foam and fiberglass epoxy resin. This aircraft was also popular and successful, much like its predecessor. The model available for use is nearly to scale, comes fully textured, and includes animateable control surfaces, animated propeller, a canopy that opens to reveal the instrument panel and seating arrangement, and retractable main landing gear hidden in recessed bays within the wing. This model is offered in several formats and paint schemes for customization.
