Astrocam Starter Set is a marvel of rocketry design combined with twenty-first century electronic miniaturization. Equipped with its own high-definition digital video camera, Astrocam is built to do amazing things. To make sure you get the best possible views from each launch, the Astrocam HD video camera is positioned so that it points downward throughout flight and during the parachute recovery phase. A unique parachute attachment point at the tip of the nosecone ensures that you never miss a moment of the bird's-eye view of your neighborhood or launch location.

This Estes Rocket Starter Set includes

  • Port-Pad II Launch Pad and Electron Beam Launch Controller
  • 2 Types of Engines with Starters and Plugs for 2 Launches
  • Recovery Wadding for 2 Launches

    The rocket was fun, i got it at target for

    The rocket was fun, i got it at target for 17 bucks because it was on clearance, and i had a $5 coupon for getting my covid shot there, but the flash drive only takes photo and audio for me. The videos are just black no matter where i put the camera.
