Estes Vesta Intruder #7312 Build, Part 7, Vane Gluing & Two Fixes

Here you can see the filler/primer scraped off down the pencil lines.
After I scrape the filler/primer, I usually have to re-draw the pencil lines.

The top of the vanes are even with the top of the body tube.

On the bottom end, one vane ended up short!


I had to cut out another one.
Here's the new one, taped down for a shot of filler/primer.




The supplied launch lug is cut in half - 
But it turned out to be a bit longer than the laser cut balsa standoff.

The lugs were trimmed down to match up to the standoff length.
