Thank you for this. I really want to build a KR2S but it’s all so much. This video makes it a little easier. Thank you.

thanks for the Video, I am about to select wood for my Dakota Hawk, here in Australia I can easily get DF and Pine. This will be my first build.

Awesome video! Forget about buying from the hardware though. There is enough good wood flooring being thrown out in building renovation work.

I Would be concerned about the loss of strength from kiln drying. Musical instrument wood is air dried. It takes longer but does not compromise the strength. I would expect it to be the same un marine applications as well as aircraft applications

Very good information....thank you for taking the time to make this video.

or build a plane from old bike frames . or timber ..two by four frame or ...some way simpler construction just crude wood and plyplates as wings , in a strong simple way l guess not glue then ,maybe just test strenght of timbers by weight test in middle see if cracks , .. would it work for a few flies at least , fun vid for youtube safer to remote control with man weight sandbag in seat. or old plane wings on old car drive till lifts no propeller.uj

Hi can you tell what is the spec for the wood and do you know any spec for aeronautical bonding of the wood with epoxy adhesive ? Thanks

Hi Malcolm, thanks for this video, can you send me the material list for a HM293?, thanks a lot

What about moisture content? Did you pre-dry your lumber before cutting and planning?
