Continuing on with HPR newb questions, I'm just getting to the point in the DX3 of epoxying down the fins. As I test fit them a few times, I realizied that for LPR I would usually just eyeball the alignment and consider that "good enough." Eight times out of ten it worked out fine. But with a much larger, not to mention much more expensive, kit the stakes seem higher and I would like more assurance that my eyeballs haven't deceived me. I've played around with a few possibilities but thought I would likely get better ideas and answers from the forum that has already helped me out immeasurably with all things rocket-wise.
Does the following have any validity: assume a flat surface and place a square next to the body and line the fin up with the straight line carefully as pictured?
Or do any tools exist for larger rockets to help with alignment?
