Reviews : Quest Harpoon Model Rocket Kit

Lots going on here. The Harpoon is a cool semi-scale bird with twelve fins to align and sand, nice waterslide decals and a one color paint job. The alignment isn't overly tough, even for someone as detail challenged as myself. I thought it would be a good candidate for B flights at B6-4 Field, but it builds a touch heavy, and may be closer to a C6-3 bird.

The Quest Harpoon is a fun kit to put together as well as a great flier. Also I think this would be a great rocket for someone looking to move up to skill level 3 kit. While it has a lot of fins they are not difficult to align if you use the double glue method.

I picked up and built this kit a few months ago. The only tricky part of the build is getting the fins properly aligned. It flies well, and really needs the power of a C-class engine. B engines don't really have enough oomph to lift all the weight.

love a good challenge, this will test your patience sanding & gluing all these fins. I would have given 5 stars but would rather have waterslide decals, but I suppose that's part of the challenge. :)

This is a fun Building Rocket The fin alignment tool sure came in handy for the big fins, painting and decaling was enjoyable can't wait to see it FLY

Very realistic replica. Flew nice and straight, made a good recovery. Looks really cool with the decals.
