Estes Delta Wedge Clone #1931 Build, Part 10, More Decals

Here's a good fit of the forward wrap decal.

Look close at the second picture - you can see a light pencil line beneath the decal.

Set the decal edge in line with the pencil line. It is very important to get the initial placement straight or the decal won't match up when the remainder is rolled around the tube.

Here's how the roll decal looks from the side.

A home print decal set over silver paint gives the red ink a candy color look.

 

This USA decal struck me as being too wide. It crowds the leading edge decal and the fin on the right side.

On my decal re-draw I made the USA decal a bit narrower.

I used two shorter scrap lengths of 1/8" elastic left over from other builds. These two lengths were tied together and joined to the Kevlar line from the motor mount.

A 12" Odd'l Rockets chute was tied onto a shock cord loop a few inches away from the nose cone. Normally I'd use a snap swivel, but didn't have any close by.
