1.6" Mini AGM-33 Pike ™

Excellent value, versatile performer

This kit brings the mean looks of the AGM-33 Pike to a small, lightweight package that is exceptionally complete (the only accessory needed is a motor retainer) and at a great price. The body tube and fins are sturdy and the included recovery gear is high quality. The plastic nose cone is a bit rough - what I did to smooth it was coat it with medium CA, and sand that smooth. Because of the light weight of the kit, it can be flown on motors as small as a C11 or D12, and can get big altitude on F and G 29mm loads. My kit did not require nose weight for a D12-5 motor, and I have added a small amount to balance with the Aerotech Hobbyline motors. This design lends itself to many different paint schemes, and looks great when complete.
