The KR-2, an experimental aircraft designed by Ken Rand during the early '70s, was a refined version of his successful KR-1 Experimental. Seating two side-by-side occupants - pilot and either another pilot or passenger - this compact airplane utilized a VW or Porsche inline engine (with power output ranging from 75 to 90 hp) combined with a fixed pitch, 2-blade propeller. Capable of reaching cruise speeds of 120 mph while stalling at around 40 mph, the KR-2 was renowned as one of the world's smallest two-seat planes ever produced. It boasted a wooden truss and plywood fuselage, a wood wing structure, and composite wing skins made from micro-bead foam and fiberglass epoxy resin. This aircraft's popularity and success mirrored that of its predecessor. The digital model of this aircraft is constructed to near-scale specifications, comes fully textured, and features animateable control surfaces as well as animated propellers. The canopy opens up for a glimpse of the intricately detailed instrument panel, seats, and controls. The main landing gear retracts into recessed bays within the wings. This model is available in various formats and paint schemes to suit different preferences.
