I am painting my Hawk's Hobby Super Bandit.

I'm not sure how long to make the black panels on the body tube. Dimensions are not provided in either the Semroc or original Estes instructions.

I could scale up from the original if someone came up with a scheme that turned out well.

From the top of the long tube 6 1/2'' down, from the bottom of the tube 9'' up, paint a 1 3/4'' white band above this for the decal.

Thank you Mark! That saves me the time of scaling up.

Too late to leave a white band on. Most of the tube is glossy yellow!

Great info. I wish it was here six months ago when I built my Baffleless Bandit
