New Estes V2 For 2012 - Kit 3228
1 Attachment(s)
This appears to be the Estes Canadian Arrow Kit, #2188, just with a shorter body tube for the V2.
Does anyone know if that's the case or not? Also, I'm glad that it's a 2.60" OD airframe. Greg |
This is a re-release of sorts.
There was a BT-80 based V-2 out about 20 years ago. The model could also be used to create neat spaceships, ala the Silver Comet. Just use different fins. |

Now I have a Canadian Arrow I got because it was part of the X-Prize set from Estes. And I wonder if it'll ever get built, too :o Anyway, I thought this was funny because it, too, is a good kit to bash into a V-2. But why bother now when you can get a V-2 kit, right? ;) Doug . |

I was wondering if that's the deal with the new V2, I have to assume it is. |

Since the Canadian Arrow was the V-2 with a longer body tube it only seems fair. And didn't the Silver Comet use the V-2 boat-tail with a canopy version of the nosecone and flashy fins? |

If it's like the old Estes kit that used the PNC-80K, it will need a pointy tip added to it. It seems like the kit was also stretched a little in length in addition to the oversized fins, but I might be thinking of some of the larger V-2 kits that have been produced. |
Canadaian Arrow kit
I just traded away a Canadaian Arrow kit for another OOP kit. Now I can replace with what I was going to do with the Canadaian Arrow kit.
A V-2. |
