Overview

Drive Sales with a Crowd-Pleasing Demo

The Roto Rocket STEM Kit turns heads on the sales floor. Its helicopter-style recovery spins down for a show-stopping finish after soaring to a projected 500 ft (152.4 m)—a perfect in-store demo that draws foot traffic and sparks impulse buys. With broad appeal for families and first-time flyers, it’s a reliable hero item for endcaps, launch displays, and seasonal promos.

Beginner-Friendly Build—Low Support Load

Roto Rocket is designed for success on the first launch, minimizing returns and follow-up questions. Straightforward assembly, molded plastic fins, and self-stick decals make the build fast and frustration-free, so new hobbyists leave your store confident and excited to fly again.

Engines Included—Ready for Same-Day Launch

Each kit includes C5-3 and C6-3 engines, making it an easy “grab-and-go” purchase. Recommend a Porta-Pad II with a 1/8 in (3.18 mm) launch rod, starters, and recovery wadding to complete the setup and lift basket size. The dual recovery—helicopter rotor plus 12 in (30.5 cm) parachute—helps protect the model for repeat flights and refill sales.

Great for Events, Workshops, and Scout Nights

Ages 10+ and beginner skill level make Roto Rocket a natural fit for store-hosted launches, community events, and scout nights. Two included helicopter blade sets and five quick activities turn every flight into a mini experiment—ideal for content, demos, and repeat visits.
