Estes QCC Explorer Build Part 24, Ends and Edges
A 1/8" wide shock cord was run through the elastic loop at the top of the coupler.
A loop was tied near the top to attach a altimeter.
The end was tied onto the nose cone base with a Duncan Uni Knot.
With the nose cone tied on you won't lose it at ejection.
The top and bottom edges of the payload tube were blackened with a marker. This makes a cleaner color separation when the nose cone is inserted.
One of the intake side decals wouldn't release from the backing sheet. Most of the decal slid right off except for a small area near the top.
A small red decal patch was tried but it didn't blend well.
I ended up dabbing a red Sharpie over the open area. Perfect? No, but hardly noticeable.
(This is not the model sold on Ebay. Those decals transferred just fine.)
