There was a sport rocketry article on a 4" V2 made out of paper. Much lighter weight than the plastic nose cone/fincan/fins of the Estes V2. I don't know if it got written up in EMRR or is available online anywhere.


The gentleman's name was Mark Hamilton and it was a 200+% upscale of the Currell paper V-2. Images can be seen here..

Truly remarkable...
 
V-2s usually require weight in the nose. Mine had weight but apparently not enough... :-(

Some clever person modified a big daddy to be a nice looking V-2 by simply using a second big daddy nosecone for the boattail
