Aerobee decal placement ?

[bobby_hamill]

I know about where the decals go, but how far apart are they in relation to the bottom of the rocket and the distance between each line decal ?
Looking at several instructions from different company's, none of the instructions tell how far apart they are placed.

Thanks

Bobby

Estes Aerobee 300 kit # KD-17

The Aerobee 300 has a main body tube that is a BT50-L, which should be 12.7" long.

This page (link below) should provide you dimensions from the bottom of the tube to the decals (see upper right hand corner of image).

The first two from your decal image are the top two decals. 10.15" and 5.5" from the bottom.

The third is the third down is 2 15/32" from the rear.

The solid black line is the next down at 2.25" from the rear.

The dotted line is likely at the front of the body...



The AA, AF and 10.2 are unclear.
