Estes Equinox Build Part 13, Jet Tubes and Sub Fins



Here's the Centuri Scram Jet version Jet Tubes.
The mask and paint scraping was hard to line up.

It was easier to spray the tubes and body tube separately then glue the painted parts together.
I didn't use much glue and no fillets were added.
Scraping off the paint and lightly roughing up the body tubes made a very strong dried glue bond.



This is the Estes Equinox Jet tubes with the added sub fins.

The inset picture shows the alignment from the back end.

  1. Chris,
    Do you have more pictures of your old Centuri Gabriel rocket?

    1. Hi David,
      The posted pictures are the only ones I took when I visited family in California. Maybe I should have taken more!
