Quest Harpoon AGM Build, Part 1, Parts


From the Quest website:
"The Quest Harpoon model rocket kit is accurately detailed to match the US Navy and Air Force SLAM AGM-84 Harpoon anti-ship missile. The Harpoon model rocket can reach an altitude of 800 feet.

Recommended Q-Jet B4-4, C12-4, C12-6, D16-6, D16-8 model rocket motors."

The parts were of good quality.
I had already assembled the parachute before the picture was taken.
This is a newer chute, not crispy like the old ones.
The nose cone is a little like the old Big Bertha cone.

Parts of interest:
The middle fins weren't on a sheet, all four were separate.
12 fins - lots of grain filling and alignment.
This is a show build for Quest, so new fins will be cut from basswood.
A big water slide decal sheet.

  1. Glad to hear the kit has waterslide decals. I thought all the Quest kits were stickers, I have not built a Quest kit in a long time.

    1. Hi Lee,
      It looks like most of the Quest kits have stickers. The Level 3 kits have waterslides or large spray on adhesive wraps for the FLV.
