Description
Discover the origins of model rocketry with the Designer Signature Series kit from Harry Stine, the “Father of Model Rocketry” and founder of the National Association of Rocketry. As one of the original pioneers of the hobby, Stine’s talent for science and writing was integral to its creation. This kit includes a precise replica of the Antar model rocket, based on multiple sketches and the original model owned by Bill Stine, Estes Vice President and Harry’s son.
However, originally a fictional vehicle, Stine’s knowledge of flight science made it possible to create a stable flying model rocket. To build, you’ll need scissors, glue, sandpaper, and other basic supplies. For launching, the Porta-Pad II Launch Pad and Electron Beam Launch Controller, as well as Estes model rocket engines, starters, and recovery wadding are required (sold separately). Embark on a journey of exploration and learning with this unique kit.
