Estes Big Daddy for Brown

This Big Daddy is a real head-turner at the launch field! The Estes rocket engineers have given the Big Daddy a contemporary new look by redesigning it to handle our super powerful E engines, allowing it to fly over twice as high as it used to - reaching a cloud-topping 900 feet (274 m). Using Estes E engines, this highly streamlined rocket can achieve this impressive altitude. However, if you prefer to keep it suborbital, it will also fly extremely well on C11 engines or D engines.

Regardless of the engine choice, this extreme rocket is returned safely to earth on a huge 24-inch (61 cm) pre-assembled parachute. Standing just under 20 inches (51 cm) tall and having a Big Daddy waist size of 3 inches (76.22 mm), the revised Skill Level 2 kit features laser-cut balsa fins, an oversized slotted body tube for precision fin alignment, and one of the biggest blow-molded nose cones in the hobby. This high-powered bullet is built to handle all the power you can stuff into the motor tube.

BIG is better. Well, in most things – big is better. Experience in model building and finishing is necessary to build this big guy, but the end result is worth the effort. Building tools, finishing supplies, and Estes launch supplies including a 3/16-inch (5 mm) Maxi Launch Rod are required (sold separately). E engine launches require the use of an Estes Porta-Pad E Launch Pad and E Launch Controller, also sold separately.

Recommended for ages 18 and up with adult supervision for those under 18, the Big Daddy is perfect for this Advanced level rocket. The kit is estimated to take 2 hours to assemble, not including painting and glue drying time. Projected altitude on a E12-6 engine is 900 ft (274 m).

In conclusion, this Big Daddy is a real show-stopper at the launch field. Its contemporary redesign, featuring impressive performance capabilities, a sleek appearance, and a user-friendly build process, makes it a must-have for any avid model rocket enthusiast. So, if you're looking to take your rocketry experience to new heights, the Big Daddy is the perfect choice.
