Estes Python 4 Build, Part 11, Dry Fit, Lug Gluing and White
















Here's the dry fit -
This is a TALL BT-55 model, about two feet tall.
It should be a good model for the small field with a B6-4.

The two 5/8" long lugs were glued in line with a launch rod for alignment.


White coats followed.
After the first coats were set I could see the forward strakes didn't get a good enough seal against the cardstock plates.
A thin fillets of Titebond M&TG was set down and the fillet smoothed with a Q-tip.
