A while back there was a wave of activity on the NAR Facebook group about painting V2's. I posted a picture of an Estes V2 that I had modified for a contest a few years ago. Well, flash forward to today and I stumbled across a data packet that I made for that model. Therefore, I thought I would share the contents of the packet with my STB readers!
By the way, I would be remiss to not tell you that I got ALL of my data from Peter Alway's "Rockets of the World" and the wonderful site V2ROCKET.COM.
Here are some pics!

The cover page! |

A list of the modifications done to make the Estes kit closer to true scale. I didn't mention nose weight, but it's in there! |

Here is the data from V2ROCKET.COM |

The Alway drawing... |
|
The color scheme from the web site. |

...complete with modeling info! |

The final product! |
There you have it! I hope these resources help you on your next V2 build! Until next time, fly 'em fast and high!
