The KR-21-A was a low-wing braced monoplane with two open tandem cockpits and powered by a 100 hp (60 kW) Kinner K-5 radial piston engine.[2] It was of mixed construction and had a fixed tailwheel landing gear and was fitted with dual controls.[2]
The KR-21-B was a more powerful biplane development, using a 125 bhp Kinner B-5 engine.[1] Five were produced, three built as -B models and two converted from the -A.
At least three, most of the production, survive today
