FeaturesThe No. 2 Sky Writer rocket is a one-of-a-kind design from the creative guys at the Estes rocket shop. It's the very first model rocket to replicate the good ole' No. 2 wooden pencil. A rocket shaped like a pencil? Yep...Estes is just that good! This high performance rocket was designed to erase the law of gravity while it races up to 1,100 feet and returns safely on its 12 inch preassembled parachute. This giant replica of an iconic writing tool stands over 2 feet tall and comes with a conveniently precolored body tube that looks like the real thing - eraser and all! It really looks just like a pencil streaking toward the clouds! If you've never seen a school supply fly, here's your chance! The No. 2 Sky Writer is an E2X series kit, which means quick and easy assembly that usually takes about an hour or less. After the basic rocket is assembled, complete the pencil look with the self-stick decal. Go ahead and write across the sky! 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 up to a couple of hours. E2X kits contain parts that are colored, easy to assemble, plastic fins or fin units and plastic nose cones. Glue the parts together as instructed, apply the self-stick decals and attach the recovery system. Tools and construction supplies sold separately. In order to launch, a launch system, model rocket engines, igniters and recovery wadding are required - sold separately.
