It looks like a KR-1 or KR-2 to me.

Gonna get a lot of prop strikes with that landing gear though.:) Some folks simply have yards that are more interesting than other folks'.

Note that the tail is high, though, Randy.

The gear is missing, it’s sitting on a dolly. My guess is it’s a one-off design. It does appear to be all aluminum so maybe i
it is based off the KR1???

"

I was making a failed attempt at humor by my prop strike comment. Careful scrutiny of that picture also shows there is no engine in the thing. lol.

To be honest, at first glance I thought it had the old KR spring bar style gear. :eek:

Kind of has a little Hummel in it. Mostly around the wings and tail. But not eggzactly.

Interesting. There isn't any diagonal bracing in the cockpit area.

RV's don't have diagonal bracing there. The skins take care of it.

Looks like a Taylor Titch.

My best learned conjecture is either a Mustang II taper wings and tail mated to a 2 seat tandem prototype fuselage or Nexus Mustang which is part Mustang 2 and part Mustang 1 by Dick Eaves...

The first I thought of when I saw this was, Huh and updated version of the Flybaby

That cockpit doesn't look very comfortable but maybe that's just me.;)

My thought when I first saw it was: Somebody's finally modernized the Flybaby.
