Default RE: Koas 40

....the Tower Kaos is a 60 size plane. It has a 55 inch wing. A super Kaos has a 58 inch wing.
The Tower Kaos has a fatter wing than the old Kaos's. It will be a dog with a 40/46 engine.

The Kaos is a pattern plane. The tower Kaos with a 40/46 engine won't come close to flying
the way the plane was intended to fly....ie lots of vertical climbs.

Trust me, I have been a "Kaos Man" for three decades. I have a Tower Kaos in the pile. I
dropped a Magnum .52 in the fuselage just to eyeball it....

....no way, too small.

My Kaos flies well (the way it was intended by Joe Bridi) with a strong .61, thank you.

FBD.
