Rocket Gallery >> Wilfred Ashley McIsaac's Astrobee D IV >>

Astrobee IV on display with EB1 and EB2 shown (electronics bay 1 & 2)

The rocket was painted red originally but was later stripped of three layers of paint and after some overzealous decals were removed the overall weight was reduced by almost 7 grams.   A thin coat of white paint in the nosecone and upper payload gave the Astrobee D IV the appearance it has today.
