Model Profile - Quest Triton - X #1617


This is another Quest Quick Kit, flight build.
It's tall, like the Penetrator but has three different diameter body tubes and two adapters.

This Flight Build didn't get the tube seams filled. The gray in the stickers was close, but didn't match the pre-colored tubes.

For the fin stickers, I made a placement template like the one used on the Saturn V build: CLICK HERE
Using a simple cardstock template insures the sticker or decal placement is consistent on both sides of all fins.


Here's the lower body - 
That TRITON - X sticker should have gone on the middle segment of the model. After placement, I couldn't remove it. the sticker would pull up the thin gray color on the outside of the tube.





The mid section - more stickers.

 




And the nose section.

Like the Quest Penetrator, this model uses two 14" parachutes. The ejection split is above the upper, second adapter.
