WOW

I would like to thank the Estes Company and their crew for replacing a rocket that had a C.A.T.O event with a new Athena rocket and three C6-5 engines free of charge. I have to admit I haven’t launched it yet but I know it’s going to be an exciting event. Estes and their employees really put us rocket scientists first and care about our passionate hobby. THANKS AGAIN ESTES !!

Awesome beginning!

Picked up 3 of these for the kids and they love them. Super easy assembly, you can do it from the launch field! Durable as can be too. For the newbie, or for getting kids/grandkids started, there is no better way. Grab a couple of these and some A8-3's and you've got hours of fun! I cant recommend them enough for quick easy enjoyment.
