Congratulation to all
News 2010 PIKE Perfect and Perfect ET are available with lower flying
weight for this season.
we managed to decrease the weigh by +/- 150 g, it depends on
version. 2/3 of weight difference was saved on the wing with the
same stiffness. The lower weigt improves the performance of the
model. 1/3 weigth difference was saved on the fuselage. New
fuselage is lighter and also stiffer and more rigid.
13-16.02.2010 - Brazil First flying this year was in Brasil Sao Paolo 13-16th of
February. where Jaroslav Vostřel and his wife Eva represented
our team. Our friends from Sao Paolo invited them to this very
kind event. This "competition" took place on a privat aifrield
about 80 km from Sao Paolo. It was a very nice place. They would
like to thanks them for their hospitality and kindness. They
enjoyed lots of fun, great food. Weather was very warm, arrivel
to Brazil was big change for them. In Czech Republic it was -15
°C temperatures and 36°C welcomed them in Brazil. Even night
temperatures were not below 22°C. World-known carnival took
place there just in that days of their visit and they could not
miss this party. It is big holiday for Brazilians and they enjoy
it so much, there was such a great atmosphere. Once more thank
you very much for chance to spend great 5 days with kind people
in sunny Sao Paolo.

on request of Jan Kohout. He required high stiffness with low
weight and possibility of using ballast. this version has full
carbon fuselage, new ballast system, tape instead of epoxy
wipers on ailerons and minimum quantity of epoxy and paint. This
version is usable for all conditions except the extremely windy
conditions, where carbon socks in ailerons are needed to prevent
flutter. Flying weight of this universal version is 2050-2070 g.
Full carbon SL version 1950 g is usable only for light

NEWS for F3J 2007 After successful season 2006 for Perfect this model came through
some small aerodynamical and construction modifications. We
concentrated on the weak points where model suffered during hard
landing, we managed to reinforce these places and keeping the
same weight. The actual flying weight of the mostly used and
universal full 68 carbon version is 2150-2200g. At the end of
last year the demand for super light Perfect increased. We
developed special super light version for very weak conditions
that is also full
carbon. Flying weight of this version is 1950 g. Some of the
competitions this year confirmed justness of this version for calm
conditions. Lots of testing and measurements of performance
confirmed difference
comparing to standard carbon 68 version. But this version make
sense only for calm no thermal conditions. WE also considered
v-tail version, that's weight would be even 100g lower (1850 g
of sl version and 2050-2100 g of carbon 68). But we relinquished
from this idea for now because of the worse handling of all
v-tail models and also because of the low demand for F3J models
with v-tails in general.

had 5 out of 8 places in the finals and showed that fast launching
is another thing this model is good at. Jan Kohout with PIKE Perfect was first and Philip Kolb
with PIKE Perfectsecond

New joiner mould Pike Perfect ready The first joiners were solid but we have now made new mould and
saved 17g on each joiner. The new joiners are hollow and weighs 18g
each. That is a total save on 34g. It probably sounds little but this is
out in the tip and makes a difference.

2/3 evening from
Philip O.K. Guys, first day's done!
We had more wind today than expected, but nevertheless we went out
to do the first flýghts on the Pike perfect.
We spent quite a long time on fixing a suitable CG for that weather
and finally I was happy flying it on 107mm measured behind the
Rootsections leading edge....... Read more HERE
2/3-06: from Philip Kolb:
I just finished the first model yesterday and put some pictures in
the attachment. Dealing to fix the model was very easy, nothing
unexpected, just perfect work done by samba model. The plane looks
really promising and whilst the weather down here looks quite
promising too (we have some 15°C, partly cloudy skies and about 6m/s
Wind) the first flights will take place in a few hours. I surely let
you know how it went.

Philip Kolb also won Bled

Pike Superior X-tail all finals.
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 2100-2200 depending on layup 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.
The model have allready been used for success in several Nationals
and European Championship F3J. See our Success
page.

We had a great time at Cyprus, everything was super and free of
charge. Organization of the competition was also very good. Lot of
food and drinks for all the day. They took the boxes with models to
the hotel with a large truck. The accomodation was in a 5 star hotel
on the coast (1 night 225 USD/person).
But the conditions durind the competition were very difficult. We
had to fly very far with not very strong thermals. Results are as
following:
1. Reinhard Valant Europia GER
2. Jan Kohout PIKE Superior x-tail CZE
3. Joe Wurst Icon USA
4. Vítězslav Štěrba PIKE Superior x-tail CZE
5. Skip MIller PIKE Superior x-tails USA
6. Neil Jones PIKE Superior v-tail GBP
Unfortunately David Hobby was not there. One of the competitors told
us that F3J becomes more fair. When we asked him why, he told us
that all pilots start to fly with the same model, he was talking
about Superior :-)
Well half of the pilots were flying with Superior.
1st price was 1 week stay in luxury hotel + air tickets
2nd price was MC 24
3rd was PIKE Superior
The only one trouble was with small distances between the spots (about
8 m) so there was a lot of crashes (also minimum 4 Superiors).
Thanks to North Cyprus Aviation Association for organization and
invitation to such a great event. It was very nice to meet F3J filots from many countries and nice diversification of winter
season.

Championship F3J, Deva 2003
Congratulation to all the winners of medals and to all helpers of the teams
that probably also have earned a medal! A special congratulation from us to
the following pilots:
Seniors:
- 1st Kohout
- 5th Vostřel
- Tupec got 100
points penalization (Safety corridor) and he felt down from the second to
the 18th place.
1st placed senior team
- Jan Kohout - 7
flights of preliminary rounds
with PIKE Plus and
2 flights with crossing Superior
and all fly off flights with X-Superior
PIKE Brio now in production
The PIKE Brio model is designed for top F3F flying. It is also easy to
control like all PIKE´s. You can also fly F3B category with this model.
Development and the production :
The prototype was finished of styropor and balsa. Kevin Newton and Radovan
Plch have tested the qualities of the model and it is great. The model is now
in production. Some details: Wingspan
3m, new fuse with 2 piece V-tail or Superior fuse, profile MG06 mod. Weight
carbon X-tail: apx 2050g
Kevin Newton is one of the test-pilots and some pictures and writing is on his
site:
www.knewt.com
Latest news is that Kevin won the UK F3F League in 2002 by the largest amount
in many
years using the Brio prototype.
PIKE Carbon fuse
How to get good range on a carbon fuse
12.4.2003 Many questions about range on
carbon fuses so we have now put a page with solutions just for you. Be sure to
make range checks and never fly your plane with bad range.
See the solutions on THIS PAGE
PIKE Superior Xtail NEW: Now also with
X-tail
The Superior can now be supplied with X-tail.
05.12.2002 We have just developed and
tested a new X-tail for Superior. This fuse can also be used on the Brio... The
X-tail is smaller than the one used on the Pike Plus and made all composite and
so stiff that it can be used in any F3X competition.
See some pictures on THIS PAGE
PIKE Superior is finally here.
At last a completely new model from Samba for F3J, F3B.
It was constructed by the newest knowledge about aerodynamics and about the construction of the models that guarantee the big strength of the models by small
weight. And also we took advantage of our many years experience.
Development and the production :
In June 2001 the protype was finished of styropor and balsa. We have tested the qualities of the model for 4 months
and it was great. It was just like we wanted, the qualities are as we expected. After small changes we
the final version of the model is now in production.
Model was tested by Ing. Jan Kohout and Jaroslav Tupec. The production of the moulds was made
with CAD-CAM technology. The tooling was made on 3D professional cutter that works with 0,02 mm precision. The result are really very exact moulds.
Specification:
Wing span: 3300 mm
Wing area: 66,5 dm2
The profile in the centre of the wing: HQ/W 2,5/8 - the camber and the thickness is gradually changed to the end of the wing
Flying weight: 1860 - 2180g -it depends on the version of the strength
Ballast tube: 500 g - 1500 g - depends on the version
Joiners are 11,5x11,8 mm (bigger than the old one)
3-piece wing
The leading edge is ellipsed. The flaps and ailerons are bottom hinged that makes better aerodynamics because we
don't need big servo covers.
The seating of the wings and V-tail is very strong and precise.
