Default Weeks Solution

I am interested in a Miles Reed design Weeks Solution and am wondering if there is a website that one can go to to get specs and info for the different models.

Also does anyone know if these can be bought as an ARC or ARF?

They can't be bought as an arf or arc, however Dave Dessecker does have the kits for the Weeks Solution. His email is http://davepeg@wilkshire.net. Email him and tell him you want information on the Weeks and he will respond quickly, great guy to deal with also. Precision Kit Cutters also cuts the kit however when you get one from Dave he includes everything to build the airframe or you can buy a short kit.

Dave has been emailing with me for the past view days and has sent me info about the planes (got it in 4 days even with Christmas). He has been great to work with. I will be sending him a check to get my kit on its way in the next couple weeks. If anyone had any questions or needed some info I would defiantly point them to to Dave he has been great to work with!

Brett- That's great to hear, Dave is a super nice guy. You will find that the Weeks kit builds easy and it will fly great. Which one are you getting? I really like the Weeks Solution X, it tends to fly a little more smoother, either way if you build the plane according to plans you will have a great flying plane.

I have to agree here on all counts.
Dave is a great guy to deal with and fly with at events I have run into him.
I had both of the Weeks that were sold by Dave, and I always thought that the Solution X was the best.

A guy I fly with has this beautiful weeks solution. I think he may still want to sell it but I'm not 100% sure.

I've seen the plane 3dcrazy is talking about. It is beutiful and is one of my favorite planes that comes to the field. I also have overheard the owner talking about selling it.

Default Re: Weeks Solution

I am getting the Solution X, it seems to just fit in size and in wallet. I have wanted one of these since I watched Miles fly these at the old Shelby Air Fair in Shelby Oh years ago. But back then the only way to get one was to knock someone over the head and take there's or scratch build and that just wasn't going to happen!

Now I just have to figure out where to build this thing and what to build it on so I get my wings warp free and straight.

Well off to the post office to mail Dave my check!!!
