Estes Starter Sets

Model rocketry is a safe, affordable, educational and rewarding hobby. No matter your age, gender, background or abilities, anyone and everyone can participate in this hobby to whatever degree they desire.

Getting started is easy, just click on the item title of the starter set that catches your eye. Then you can read more about the starter set and also find out which engines to buy for the included model rocket(s). The model rocket engine propels the rocket into the air, releases tracking smoke near apogee and then fires off an ejection charge to release the recovery system. In addition to the engines, you will also need some recovery wadding which is used to protect the parachute or streamer from the ejection charge.

The Estes starter sets come with well written instructions which will help you along the way. So don't delay and enter the wonderful world of model rocketry today!
