Based on rumored 1950s secret project to counter the “flying saucer threat.” The Estes Star Hopper is a no-glue, no-paint Beginner-Level kit that you can build and launch up to 400 feet all in the same day. Features detail-molded plastic parts, atomic-age styling, and a 18-inch streamer for recovery.

A shiny chrome nose cone makes this one easy rocket to track on a sunny day! Assembly is so simple, slip the fin into the fin slots, attach the recovery system and that’s it!

The Sidekick cleverly combines two body tubes, two nose cones, and two sets of fins to produce one remarkable rocket! Clustered engine launches are spectacular, as are recoveries via twin 36-inch mylar streamers. Light up the sky with the dynamic dual delights of the Estes Sidekick!

Quick to build and fast off the pad, the Estes Illusion is gone in a flash! With swept back fins and a jet-fighter nose cone, the no-glue, snap-together Illusion look like it’s always moving! Flights to 1125 feet on an Estes C6-5 engine. No tricks here – the Illusion is the model rocket for you!
