The Estes LEO Space Train kit allows you to bring to life the impressive features of this spacecraft. The kit includes precision-cut balsa fin and wing panels with laser-etched details, and an authentic-looking plastic engine nozzle and custom LEO Space Train "lion" graphic and logo. It can reach up to 300 feet (91 meters) on a single-stage C6-3 engine and return gently to Earth under its own 18-inch parachute.
To build this rocket, you will need scissors, pencil, ruler, fine sandpaper, yellow glue, plastic cement, sanding block, hobby knife, masking tape, clear tape, primer (white), paint (black, light gray), and clear coat (optional). To launch it, you will need the Estes Porta-Pad II Launch Pad and Electron Beam Launch Controller, Estes model rocket engines, starters and recovery wadding, and four 1.5V high quality AA alkaline batteries for the launch controller (not included).
