The KR-2, a small experimental aircraft designed by Ken Rand in the 1970s, was an advanced version of his successful KR-1. It accommodated a pilot and passenger/copilot in side-by-side seating and was powered by a VW or Porsche inline engine, producing 75 to 90 hp. The aircraft boasted a fixed pitch, two-blade propeller and achieved cruise speeds of up to 120 mph while maintaining a stall speed around 40 mph. As one of the world's tiniest two-seat planes, it featured a wooden truss and plywood fuselage, wood wing structure, and composite wing skins made from micro-bead foam and fiberglass epoxy resin. Renowned for its small size and popularity, this model is available in various formats, paint schemes, and includes animated control surfaces, an animating propeller, openable canopy revealing the instrument panel and seat arrangement, and retractable main landing gear into recessed wing bays.
