A classical 2-stage sport rocket standing 22 inches tall, the Sterling Silver is truly a “must-have”! Single stage or 2-stage, this rocket soars! Load it up on a C6-0/C6-7 engine combo and you better have your binoculars handy as the estimated altitude is a whopping 2,600 feet!
The Sterling Silver launches on Standard engines and recovery is streamer for the rocket and tumble for the booster. Prepare for re-launch with a new Estes engine, wadding, a starter and starter plug.

rocketman –
the parachute didnt work the engine burned it so i couldnt get it to launch again very dissapointing.
Susan Hardee (verified owner) –
Great rocket to build and launch. Clearly heard the second stage kick, but it was lost post launch. Never saw the parachute deploy or the rocket come back down. I was able to retrieve the booster. Ordering a second one and planning to paint it a different color to see if that aides in spotting it and recovering it.
Jim –
Fun rocket to build and shoot. Lost it completely on the first launch though as it did go out of sight and we couldn’t locate it.
