I used to own a Ka-6, but am thinking of a a Ka-8b that is coming up for sale.
Any thoughts on the Ka-8?

Things to watch out for?
Difficulty rigging?

Thanks,

These are getting pretty old - get a *really* good inspection.
Especially glue joints!
One of these lost a chunk of wing in flight a few years back
due to deteriorated glue (landed safely but yikes).

Enjoy,
