Everything you need for your first day of flying model rockets. The launch equipment can be used to continue your adventure and fly the entire fleet of Quest model rockets.

The Quick-Q rocket does not require painting or finishing beyond the application of self-adhesive decals. It features colored body tubes, plastic nose cone and molded plastic fin-can assembly, plus Kevlar/elastic shock cord system, quick-release motor mount, self-adhesive decals and 14 inch recovery parachute.

The Lift-Off Launch Pad has tilt adjustment, rocket stand-off, 36-inch two-piece launch rod, and a metal blast deflector. The Q2 Launch Controller features blinking LED arming lamp, beeping “armed” alarm, and launch key with safety flag. One 9-volt snap-top Lithium battery is required for the launch controller operation – Not Included.

This set includes three Q-Jet™ White Lightning™ B6-4W composite propellant rocket motors, the world’s most advanced 18mm x 70mm model rocket motors. They utilize a high-strength polymer case, ceramic nozzle, and White Lightning™ solid composite propellant. Q-Jets generate a brilliant white exhaust plume and dense bright white smoke trail. Q-Jet™ rocket motors use the same family of solid composite propellant as NASA’s Space Shuttle boosters, sounding rockets and military missiles. All Q-Jet™ motors ship with FirstFire Micro™ initiators for lift-off reliability, plus bright orange recovery wadding for three exciting flights.

Some assembly required and instructions for assembly and use included. You should be ready to launch in 30 to 45 minutes. Packaged in a sturdy reusable range operations box.
