There’s never been an Estes kit like this! Created for extreme attitudes, this high-flying two-stager can reach a record setting 3600 feet – that’s more than two-thirds of a mile! Includes a large payload section so you can send your high-altitude experiments aloft. And for safe returns, the two bright orange streamers are both easy to spot and designed to bring your rocket down quickly – don’t let this one drift away! A simple but rugged design means a fun build and you’ll be launching in no time.

SO LONG – so high, so far, so fast and so much fun!

So long but not forgotten

Fantastic model rocket that’s easy to assemble and thrilling to launch. The instructions are clear, parts fit perfectly, and the build quality feels solid. It flies straight, deploys the parachute smoothly, and makes every launch feel exciting. Great value for beginners and experienced hobbyists alike, with reliable recovery and performance. 🚀

Have not flown it yet

Have not flown it yet. The kit is going together well, although as you probably know Aerotech kit designs of the fin locks and the motor mounts are much stronger and easier to build. I have still enjoyed the build and look forward

This is a great rocket for a high-flying two-stager!

This is a great rocket for a high-flying two-stager. Fairly easy to build, and definitely makes altitude! The streamer recovery is a wonderful thing as it makes recovery far more feasible consider how high this rocket will go - even on E engines! The only tricky part is keeping the wide booster stage fins from warping during construction.
