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!

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.

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 |
