Hey Mitch, "Top Shelf!!!!"
Russ, the current Kruza is flying with a set of 29 ft Patroney's and it flys great. The exact tail wheel set up is still not finalized. It may end up similar to the Xenon.
The main reason for the changes was to strengthen the tail configuration. This setup is also actually lighter than Kruza 1, but as all new designs, any performance enhancements are still to be proven during its test flying phase.
Bonesy, the 912S/914 could be a serious possibility in future, but the boys have other hurddles to attend to first.
