Here's how the seven vanes look, placed evenly around the pattern base.
There's good reason why I didn't glue together the upper and lower segments.
I could try two different placements of the vanes over two different fin settings.
My two picks are on the right side of both pictures.
Now I can glue the upper tube segments and move on to the white undercoats and fine sanding.
The Vector-V was one of the few rockets that I flew until the tube wore out. :-)
ReplyDeleteHi NJROC,
DeleteYou must of had many flights on it to wear out the tubes. The Centuri ST-7 was thicker walled compared to the Estes BT-20.
