Great Fun for All Us Big Bertha Fans!

Big Berthas have been around a loooonngg time! I remember a friend using one for Spot Landing at NARAM-9. What a hoot! Now we've got the Super Big one with 29mm motor mount. I bought mine partially built at a club auction, and just had to finish it and put in the recovery system. This Bertha is very light for it's size, and makes really fun flights with an E or F motor. And I love the stock white/red decor and really nice decals! It makes me want to build a Super Big Alpha now as a stable mate.

We are fairly new to model rocketry, getting into it

We are fairly new to model rocketry, getting into it during the pandemic, but we've built over 10 in the last year (all estes). Normally, I would comment on the flight but this was the one rocket I held in my hand and thought it looked so cool. It felt like something substantial. Highly recommended!

Terrific!If you are looking for a challenging and bigger model

Terrific!If you are looking for a challenging and bigger model rocket build, this one is for you! Keep in mind that the fin slots ARE NOT already cut, so you have to do it yourself. (That was the most challenging part_
