FeaturesThe Der Red Max is a classic Estes model rocket and another of the most requested bring back models...and for good reason. Not only is this a uniquely decorated model, but this model performs as good as it looks. This is one of those model rockets that has a personality all its own! Standing just a tad over 16 inches tall, the Max is one of the rockets that's a must have in your rocket arsenal. From the long, ballistic-shaped nose cone to the stubby fins and the truly unique decor, this rocket has attitude! Every launch with Estes standard engines will give you stellar flights over 600 feet. Recovery is accomplished with a 18 inch preassembled parachute for safe landings. In addition to retaining all of the great looks and flying qualities of the original, this new version now features laser cut balsa fins for improved performance and has a waterslide decal set that replicates the original - including the totally cool skull and crossbones. Pick up a classic Der Red Max today and add it to your collection. You are sure to be the envy of all your model rocket buddies...until they get theirs. Estes model rocketry is recommended for ages 10 and up with adult supervision for those under 12. This model requires assembly. Assembly time can take an afternoon. Requires some painting, gluing and sanding. Features laser cut balsa fins, plastic or balsa nose cones, self-stick or waterslide decals, unfinished body tubes and step-by-step instructions. Tools, construction and finishing supplies sold separately. In order to launch, a launch system, model rocket engines, igniters and recovery wadding are required - sold separately.

Q & A
COMMENT: My son loves the skull and cross bones. He thinks it is a pirate rocket. by Rodney W 7/18/2012
COMMENT: Beginner kit for my nephews by Merlyn G 6/22/2012
COMMENT: my old favorite from 1978 by Layton G 4/12/2012
QUESTION: Can I fly this model on a D motor? by skip r 12/24/2011
ANSWER: its a pretty solid little rocket. I haven't flown it with a "D" motor, but i would say that if you converted the motor mount, i really think Mr. Red Max would enjoy the flight. by N E 1/7/2012
ANSWER: C6-7 is the biggest engine you can use by jeff b 1/1/2012
ANSWER: If you wanted to fly it on an Estes D motor you would have to install a different motor mount than what comes with this kit. You can get around this by flying a "D" 18 mm composite motor from aerotech or apogee and not have to install a separate motor mount. by Adam J 12/28/2011
