I am looking for the correct fin patterns for the Estes Pheonix Rocket. If any one has the correct size pattern or even measurements for the fins I would appreciate a set. This is all that I need to finish my clone. Thanks nukemmcssret :)

Thanks a lot. But when I print these they are way to small. Is there a scale I have to use? :) nukemmcssret

I received my decals and the rocket is basically built. I need to sand the fins the proper way and attach them. I have a toe injury that keeping me from doing anything at the moment. I will post a picture or two in a few days. nukemmmcssret :D

I wish I could sand with my toes. That way I could build them faster. :D My left leg is paralyzed from a forklift crush that happened going on 16 yrs. ago. The fourth toe on my left foot somehow bent back far enough to split it open almost all the way around, and I did not know for a few minutes. I take blood thinners so I was leaking prety good. went to get it sewed up. But after ten days, the darn stitches did not pull it together enough. They took them out yesterday, aaaand it is still oprn. UGH!!! So now I am stuck till it heals on it own. Only good thing about it is I cannot feel it. :(. I am building rockets at my desk. Here is the Snooper I have almost finished.

Yowsa!!! Doesnt sound pretty at all.

On that QModeling Snooper, do you think the springs will really help landers on impact? I put springs from pens ina bt5 cardstock vega. Only flew it a few times bit I think it helped.
