So I started and deleted a thread a little while back and wanted to explain why. I was in the process of pretty much copying a M/C 2.6 AGM Pike 33 - except I wanted mine to be 29mm vs 38,
and not a glass kit. I soon found that didn't exist, well at least not the way I wanted it. :wink: So during one of those mindsim drifts- it occurred to me, I could probably use some old stock PSII parts and come pretty darn close. I started posting some of the build early on, but deleted them because frankly I wanted to make sure it actually worked before I led someone down the wrong path- if that makes sense.
At any rate , I got it pretty much finished up tonight - with the exception of the rail guides / chute install and motor retainer - and I think it came out well enough to share now
Its technically not the exact dimensions of the M/C kit - but honestly unless they where side by side - you would be hard pressed to tell - and frankly it didn't matter to me.
I changed around the color configuration around a little more to my liking , as it is a one off anyway right ?
Enough rambling , here is how it came out, it certainly isnt perfect- I would be happy to share build tips and pics for anyone interested - as best I can. I will admit , I tend to overbuild a bit tho :grin:
