Estes 1491 Taser Rocket Launch Set for Brown/A

The Taser Launch Set, part of the Easy to Assemble (E2X) Series, is an exciting and radically designed high-altitude rocket launch set. With the included Estes launch pad and controller, you'll be ready for another extreme launch experience in no time. Using standard Estes engines, amazing heights of up to 1,000 feet (305 m) can be reached, providing thrilling high-altitude fun for rocketeers aged 10 and up, with adult supervision required for those under 12.

The Taser rocket kit features a brightly colored one-piece body tube, molded plastic fin set, and a bullet-shaped nose cone. Standing at 16.5 inches (41.9 cm) tall, the Taser is an easy-to-assemble, beginner-level rocket with pre-colored parts. Simply glue a few rocket pieces together, apply the colorful self-stick decals, and in less than an hour, you'll be ready to take to the launch pad.

A bright-colored 12-inch (30 cm) pre-assembled parachute ensures a safe return of the Taser to the launch site. The launch set comes complete with the Taser rocket, Estes controller, and launch pad, requiring only the purchase of engines, igniters, recovery wadding, and four 'AA' alkaline batteries (sold separately) to be launch-ready.

In addition to the excitement and entertainment it provides, rocketry also has significant educational value. As part of the E2X series, the Taser can help transform kids into amateur rocket scientists, encouraging them to think about how the rockets work and learn the basics of propulsion, flight, and aerodynamics. This can help foster an early interest in science and engineering.

The Taser is a reliable, high-performance rocket suitable for kids of all ages to enjoy. Recommended engines include the A8-3, B4-4, B6-4, B6-6, C6-5, and C6-7, with a projected altitude of up to 1,100 feet (335 m) on a C6-7 engine. The estimated assembly time is around 1 hour, not including painting and glue drying time.

So, whether you're an experienced rocketeer or a beginner, the Taser Launch Set from Estes provides an exciting and educational launch experience that's ready to fly in minutes. Blast off to learning and fun with this stunning, high-altitude rocket!
