Estes Executioner Blackbird Model Rocket Kit Description:
The Executioner is as brutal as it sounds! This beast of a rocket is very popular among rocketeers around the globe for its durability and size. This thing is so big it requires a D or E engine to propel it into the sky.
This monster is equipped with many
great features that makes assembly easier even when powered by a D
and E engine. One main feature is the slotted body tube which makes
it perfect for through-the-tube fin attachment and aligning of the
laser cut birch wood fins. With this unique design the rocket's fins
are more stable which will improve the rockets flight. Next, Estes
has given the Executioner a blow mold, aerodynamic nose cone for
improved vertical flight. You'll have just as much fun building this
as you will flying it. When loaded with a enormous E engine, this
monster can blast as high as 600 feet. An additional feature Estes
has added is the ¼ inch 36 inch rubber shock cord along with a
24 inch preaassembled parachute. Grab your Executioner today and be
all the envy of the local rocket club.
