Ga 7, From Wiki:
His second strike was to destabilize the stellar cluster in which Admiral Daala's two remaining Star Destroyers were hiding (out of her original four, she lost one when Kyp and Han Solo tore through it with the Sun Crusher during their escape from the Maw installation, and the second to Admiral Ackbar in her attack on Mon Calamari); he destroyed one, though he believe he destroyed both. He then proceeded to Carida, believing that there with the threat of the Sun Crusher, he could either retrieve his brother from the Stormtrooper Corps or find out where he had been sent. The Imperials made the mistake of lying to Kyp, telling him that his brother had died. In his fury, Kyp fired a resonance torpedo into the Carida system's sun, ensuring death for the planet within a few hours, and annihilating the Imperial base located there. After he fired his weapon, the Imperials discovered that Kyp's brother was still alive and among the ranks of stormtroopers at the Imperial Academy there. Kyp was unable to save him in time, and fell farther into the clutches of the dark side. While many derided him as a mass murderer, others claimed that Kyp shortened the war and that Carida's graduates would have eventually killed more people than those who perished in the supernova.
After the destruction of Exar Kun's spirit by the other trainees and Han Solo's appeal to Kyp, Kyp returned to the light and went to the Maw to destroy the Sun Crusher. On arrival, he discovered the Death Star Prototype had left the Maw and had destroyed Kessel's moon. Knowing the uses to which the Empire could put a third Death star, Kyp managed to destroy it by luring it into a black hole along with the Sun Crusher, only narrowly escaping by squeezing himself into a message pod thought too small for any human to inhabit. As a result of this, Durron suffered multiple broken ribs, limbs and other heavily damaged bones.
He quickly grew strong in the Force and took on Miko Reglia as his Jedi apprentice. Kyp and Reglia formed the Dozen and Two Avengers – a vigilante group of X-wing pilots. This squadron was one of the first to encounter the Yuuzhan Vong. Kyp lost his squadron and his apprentice to the Yuuzhan Vong, barely escaping with his own life in that encounter.
Although he favors more aggressive tactics than many of the other Jedi, he proves himself a valuable asset in the deadly conflict, as well as continuing to be a divisive figure. He briefly took on Jaina Solo as an apprentice and there were hints of a budding relationship between them, but she lost much respect for him when he tricked her into destroying a Yuuzhan Vong worldship that he claimed was a superweapon.
So it seems he started off kinda shady, then after he saved Jaina Solo from the Dark Side he became 'good' again and was then accepted by the Jedis. The Wiki article was half about him being 'evil', half about him being 'good' so I tried to copy/paste a little of each to show both sides.
