Estes Flying Model Rocket Tech-Pak Scratch Build Rocket Kit EST 2126
a challenging rocket kit that's perfect for your advanced or older students? The Estes Tech-Pak rocket is the right one for you! Designed specifically for Industrial Technology teachers, this unique kit gives students an inside look at the manufacturing process by allowing them to roll their own body tube using gummed paper and cut out the card stock fins. Please note: this is not an introductory rocket kit and should only be used for experienced or older students.
To build this rocket, you'll need scissors, pencil, fine sandpaper, yellow glue, hobby knife, and sponge (tools, construction, and finishing supplies not included). And when you're ready to launch, you'll need the Estes Porta-Pad II Launch Pad and Electron Beam Launch Controller, Estes model rocket engines, starters, and recovery wadding, and four 1.5V high-quality AA alkaline batteries for the launch controller (not included). Be sure to read and follow the instructions carefully for a successful launch!
