Default Do you have a 72" Weeks Solution?

I am so excited. Did some wheelin & Dealin and got one of the few remaining "must have before I die" models. It has a G 62 (I plan on sending to Ralph Cunningham to get ignition installed) and I am promised it is an awsome flyer. Could somebody tell me the CG as well as the high and low rates. Also, I will need a new cowl soon. Do you have a source. Thanks in advance for your help.

Sorry. I can not help. I just wanted to tell someone that I am about to order the 33% weeks solution from SI Models.

I have flown one. They are really pretty. As far as flight goes they are alright but nothing to drewl over. IMO the ultimate bipe flies a lot better.

I had an older 33% Ohio Ultimate. This plane is no longer in production b/c ohio went under. I am pretty sure it was a full kit anyway.
