The Currell V-2 is a nice model to build and fly. I simply used a central BT20 tube and a spent case in the nose cone that slips into the tube. I didn't fill the fins with balsa or anything. Flies great on a B6-4. It's light enough that it doesn't really need the streamer.

My first V-2 was a Thrustline kit. I tried to paint it like the attached scheme. I didn't realise at the time it was probably green, not black. I'm also not sure about the tip of the nosecone being lighter. Perhaps it's red? Anyway, I've not seen this scheme anywhere else. It might be the reverse side of the scheme posted earlier? My Estes 2.6" will probably be my second attempt at it.
