Pike Giant moulds are ready!!
The Pike Giant is a Pike Brio but with new bigger tips.
Prototype was first tested in WC F3J 2004 by
Jo Grini. Jo brought home 1000points in difficult rounds when nobody
flew full times. In EC F3J 2005 Jaroslav Tupec brought it for windy
rounds. The model have what is needed for new F3J style flying. This
means more aggressive flying yet still be able to slowly work some
neutral air with huge camber. The Pike Giant have a range that makes it
THE weapon for working the last of a thermal far away and be able to
come home. Ballast in windy conditions is no longer needed with this
model.
The weights are in the range 1900-2200 depending on lay-up and fuse
chosen. Wingspan is 3,3m, area 64dm and airfoil used is MG-06. The spar
for Pike Giant is even stronger than the one used for Pike Brio. Fuses
are the same as Brio and Superior so they can be combined. This means
One can choose from X-tail, V-tail and even 2-piece V-tail fuses.
The model have already been used for success in several Nationals
and European Championship F3J.
