The Estes Yankee is an exciting Skill Level 1 rocket kit that knows how to rip up the skies! This ultra-trim, 11 inch tall missile features a one piece body tube, laser cut wood fins, conical shaped nose cone and colorful red and white, All-American looking self-stick decals. Just follow the suggested paint scheme and your Yankee will really stand out on the launch pad or on your shelf. Adding to your growing fleet of Rockets? Check out this Red, White and Blue favorite, the Alpha Skill Level 1 Model Rocket Kit.

In addition to the excitement and entertainment it provides, rocketry also has significant educational value. Model rockets transform kids into amateur rocket scientists, encouraging them to think about how the rockets work. Rocket building teaches kids the basics of propulsion, flight, and aerodynamics, and can help foster an early interest in science and engineering. Some painting, gluing and sanding are required for the Yankee. Quality Estes body tubes, laser cut wood fins, molded plastic nose cone and self-stick decals make for an afternoon of building enjoyment with this Skill Level 1 kit.

What You Need To Build: Scissors, pencil, ruler, fine sandpaper, carpenter’s glue, hobby knife, masking tape, white 1/32 inch pin stripe tape or white paint pen, primer (white), paint (blue, red) and clear coat (optional). (Tools, construction and finishing supplies not included.)

What You Need To Launch (sold separately): Estes Porta-Pad II Launch Pad and Electron Beam Launch Controller, Estes Model Rocket Engines (A8-3, A8-5, B4-4, B6-4, C6-5, C6-7), and Recovery Wadding. Four 1.5V high quality AA alkaline batteries are also required for launch controller (not included).
