Estes 1256 Alpha III Model Rocket Kit Description:
Over the years
hundreds of thousands of people have been introduced to model
rocketry with the Alpha III rocket. This is the very first East to
Assemble (E2X) model rocket created by Estes. The E2X series were
designed with the first time rocket builders in mind. With all the
rocket parts pre-colored and easy to apply self-stick decals,
building this rocket only takes minutes. With the bright colors and
simplistic design this rocket is one that will stick in everybody's
mind.
Do you have
some glue on hand? Excellent, you have everything you need to build
this rocket (you'll need the rocket kit too). With Estes rocket
motors the Alpha III can fly well over 1,000 feet and returns with a
colorful parachute. It doesn't matter if this is your first rocket,
or you're taking a stroll down memory lane, this rocket is a must for
everyone's fleet.
Estes Model Rocket Engines, launch system and four AA alkaline batteries for the
launch controller required - sold separately. Recommended for ages 10
