A nice-flying Quest kit
Although the Lil' Grunt is listed as a level 3 kit, it builds more like a level 1. I assume the level 3 rating is because the Grunt flies on D motors. Overall, the quality of the kit is very good. My main complaint is with the decals - they are of the peel-and-stick variety and the material is very thick. This makes them harder to blend in with the finish than would waterslide decals. The 3/16 launch lug supplied with the kit is pretty tight on the launch rods I've tried, but I've flown it on 1/8 rods with no problems. The Grunt flies great on C11-3 and D12-5 motors with very little weather-cocking. I'm very pleased with the overall look of the Grunt, and I'm looking forward more flights.
Nice Red Max,er,Goblin,er,Li'l Grunt!
This was an easy, fast build. The large streamer comes with a metal grommet attached for durability. I like the bulletholes decals- a humorous touch. Standing next to my Estes Der Red Max and my Semroc Goblin, they look like they come from the same family. Will upload a picture soon.
A fun, easy build. Good flyer.
Grunt is a fun build with a fun name. I like the double kevlar thread with the elastic shock cord setup. Not exactly sure what makes this one Level 3, but no matter. Peel and stick decals are nice and easy to apply and stick well. Also a fan of the bullet hole decals.
