Quest/Aerotech High Q, #Q5012, Build Highlights, Part 1, Engine Mount

Some descriptive copy from the Quest website:

Flies on 'D', 'E', and 'F' motors.

High-Q is a great looking and performing mid-size rocket. Over 30 inches tall, the kit features blow molded plastic nose cone, laser-cut balsa fins and a rugged 29mm diameter motor mount. Flights with an Aerotech F32-6W will go to almost 3,000 feet. Then your High-Q will recover gently on the big 18-inch fabric parachute. Includes big, easy-to-apply self adhesive decals. Also includes 24mm motor mount adapter that allows you to use 24mm diameter motors.

Recommended Motors: D12-3, D12-5, E9-4, E9-6 - Aerotech E20-4W, E20-7W, F32-6W, F20-7W.
This rocket designed by internationally famous designer Scott Branche.

______________________________________________________________________

This won't be a full build, most of the the construction is standard.

I'll concentrate on a few high points, masking, painting and the stickers.

My two kits included a 16" yellow, rip stop nylon parachute.

A 24mm engine mount is included - This is the instruction illustration.

GOTCHA: I would recommend gluing the rear centering ring 1/2" up from the bottom of the motor mount tube.

The Quest engine hook won't spring back if it doesn't have room to flex.

Moving the centering ring forward allows for some movement of the spring.
