Thanks for posting the picture. Similar to mod I have in mind.

What do you mean you never flew the original? I thought you made the modification after you started flying the aircraft?

Julian told me his fillet improved the slow speed handeling. My KIS is very stable and controllable at stall+20 kts. At stall+10 kts the aircraft is a bit "wobbly", small pitch and roll distubances. Don't really need to correct the disturbances, and the aircraft is still responsive to contoll input. At stall speed there are noticable pitch buffeting, and if the stick is kept in the aft position, the aircraft will sharply drop a wing (feels like 90 deg), and I have never attempted to see what hapens after this if do not recover from the stall.

Regards,

Here is an attachment picture of making the wing fillet. How it works compared to the orginal I don't know as I never flew the orginal.

Sounds like just about a perfect stall warning to me. I am not saying that a larger root fillet would not help reduce stall speed. It may. But a good prestall warning is a very important thing to have.

If your aircraft is a tail dragger do you have fairings on the gear leg to fuselage junctions?

I really like the look of the larger aft wing root fairing. Not really a big fan of the big fairing at the forward part of the wing root.
