So I know, yet ANOTHER build thread... but I love these new kits, and I want to share, so I hope folks will forgive me being chatty for a bit!
I ran across this post back in late february (Thanks @Theory) and I had my eye out every time I hit a hobby shop looking for this kit. I saw quite a few Quest kits in the wild, but couldn't find the harpoon. I broke down last week and finally ordered it from their website. It arrived over the weekend, and I got a start on it last night...
Really nice looking kit. Instructions have a nice parts list, and well documented steps. They are much more text heavy, including on their images than what Estes is on theirs. This is a welcomed change for me The instructions have me start with a motor mount, which seems completely logical. Lets get this party started!
No cutting necessary on the centering rings, and it shipped with kevlar + elastic in the kit. Glued it all up and let it sit for the night, and I am complete with Step 1.
