What is the diameter of the body tube you want the roll pattern to fit? I'm working on some "Generic" decal sets. I already have them on my web site for BT-20, BT-50 and BT-55. I have the BT-80 set completed and I'm working on BT-60. They are in the "Classic Waterslide decals" section listed under "Other Decal sets". I didn't know where else to put them.

Gordy,
Estes has posted painting/decal information for all of the Pro Series II kits on their website: http://www.estesrockets.com/rockets...s/paint-schemes I'd be interested in a set of decals for the Ventris kit. Quote:

Should it have lettering or something other than a roll pattern?

With a little cutting and pasting, I could print the downloded patterns onto clear label stock.

I'm fine with just the two roll pattern decals.

I have made quite a bit of progress on my Ventris build.
The lower section of the model is ready for primer. I decided to make the upper section a payload compartment for my Altimeter Two which required the drilling of some holes in the adapter and nose cone bulkheads to center a 18mm/BT-20 tube. I also drilled some 1/8" diameter holes in the payload tube 180 degress apart. I have mentioned the loose fit of the tube adapter into the 2.0" body tube so I added some shims to build up the circumference of the tube adapter shoulder. After doing this, I put the model together to have a look at it. Somethings not right. The tip of the nose cone is off the centerline of the model. What the... I take off the payload section and look at the shoulder of the tube adapter. It's molded at a angle. Darn it! I couldn't tell this before as the fit was so loose. After I shimmed up the shoulder the molding error becomes obvious. I'll have to adjust my shims to see if I can straighten the payload section out. It will be a few more days before I can spray the primer on the model. Sigh.

So, we're talking about a $60 A.C.M.E. Spitfire?
