I'm interested in building a 1/4 scale version of the above. Should have a 71" span and about a 59" length. Would anyone know where I might get ahold of a good 3-view drawing and or photo?
Many thanks, Jim

I think I can supply the drawing but you may want to check the last issue of RCM. I think they did a constuction article on the bird although I'm not sure of the scale. I'll see what I've got, Chad.




Zeon -> Krier Kraft (4/3/2002 7:40:26 AM)

Thanks fo help. Let me know what you find. The one that was in RCM was an off-scale size....55" span. I just might take off for Kansas and check it out myself at the museum, and get some good mesurements and pictures. :cool: Jim

Jim, so far all I've come up with is a construction article on the Whitehead 1/5 scale bird in a British scale mag. Same one that ran in RCM I'm sure. I know I've seen drawings for this bird. If I can dig 'em up you'll be the first to know. Best of luck, Chad.

Hey Jim, Model Builder magazine published a 70" Krier Kraft some years ago, and I believe these plans are still available through Bill Northrop's Plan Service. You can reach him at: (702) 896-2162
Good choice...and good luck!
Regards, Nigel

Well, I went and did it....I took a little trip to Ashland, KS., and saw the real thing at the Pioneer-Krier Museum. I took many pictures and took all kinds of measurements, and am just now starting to draw some 3-views! That plane is one the best looking planes I've ever seen. One thing though....I'm not sure whether to power it via I/C or electrics.....maybe I'll do BOTH!! :D
As you can tell...I'm just a little excited!! Jim




MalcolmL -> Krier Kraft (5/3/2002 11:16:09 PM)

Are you intending to sell the 3-view when it's complete ? Also, are you interested in selling me a set of your pics ? MalcolmL




Zeon -> Krier Kraft (5/4/2002 2:55:50 AM)

MacolmL,

Haven't even thought about that, but I'll keep you in mind. The ink hasn't even dried yet! ;) Jim




MalcolmL -> Krier (5/4/2002 11:55:05 AM)

Thanks. Put me on your list. I have the Gordon Whitehead plan and have been considering upsizing it, but lack of documentation has put it on the back burner. MalcolmL




Skybouncer -> Krier Kraft (11/24/2002 2:29:58 AM)

If anyone is interested in a kit or purchasing mold of this 1/4 scale kit please reply ASAP!




MalcolmL -> Krier (12/3/2002 10:01:56 AM)

Zebra - has the ink dried yet on your plans production ?!? How have you got on with your plans ?

Also, can I interest you in selling me a set of those pics you took of the Krier ?

At least, would you consider posting a pic on RCU ? Please, pretty please ! MalcolmL




Zeon -> Krier Kraft (12/3/2002 6:21:04 PM)

MalcolmL,

Sent you a PM.

Regard, Jim

Hey Ronnie,
I was going WAY back in RCU and saw you once mentioned a 1/4 scale kit of the Krier Kraft.
Do you still have them?
Thanks!
John L. Konneker




MalcolmL -> RE: Krier Kraft (5/5/2007 2:45:49 AM)


Hi - I'm still interested in a 1/4 scale plan of a Krier Kraft. Have there been any developments ? Is there an accurate plan out there somewhere ? MalcolmL
