If I were him, I would ask the court to modify the custody order based on mom's felony and ask to be allowed to take the child out of state.

It depends on the court papers. I would have to look at them. He could go to court on an emergency basis and get full custody quickly.

You ask about your son "taking the child out of state without full custody". I assume you mean moving from Kansas. He has joint custody. Does he have residential custody? Kansas law requires specific notice requirements to the other parent when moving. To be safe and comply with the Court, a Motion and short hearing to get permission from the Court are suggested.
