Public Missiles PML Flying Model Rocket Kit 4" Bumble Bee PML 39383 Special Order Only
Bumble Bee is short and sweet yet nice and stable. Not an inch of space is wasted inside of this rocket! Bumble Bee utilizes our new Stuffer Tube Recovery design. Much of the recovery system is inside of the nosecone! The shock cord is "built into" the nosecone and can never tear out. Bumble Bee comes with a 38mm motor mount standard. Can be flown on many H, I, and even some J motors!

Quantum Airframes:
The Quantum Tube (QT), is made from a special blended polymer that is extremely durable and easy to use. You will find this new material easy to work with and very forgiving. Most hobby type epoxies and paints will readily adhere to this material as well. The Quantum Tube can be squeezed, dropped, or even thrown and will not suffer any damage as can sometimes occur to cardboard or phenolic tube. The Quantum Tubes are molded in medium gray and have a glass smooth finish. The Quantum Tube does have one thing missing, the spiral groove! You will appreciate the fact that you no longer have to fill and sand the airframes to achieve the perfect finish. All PML rocket kits 2.1" dia. through 3.9" dia. come standard with Quantum Tube airframes.
