Skystar said that the Crosswind component for the Kitfox is 1/2 the stall

speed of the individual plane. I'd only attempt that if I was experienced at

crosswind tail wheel landings.

I would agree   my first 50 hours.... no way...now I have over  300 and feel 

pretty comfortable in a strong crosswind.  One of the  limitations is the 

rudder authority, the Kitfox has a very powerfull rudder,  that, combined with 

proper technique, you really handle a strong  crosswind.
