- BEGINNER MODEL-ROCKET-BUILDING KIT: The 2198 Estes Blue Origin New Shepard rocket model kit allows ages 10 to create a 1/66th-scale model of the Blue Origin New Shepard launch vehicle. It includes the rocket parts, design decals, a recovery parachute, and instructions. It requires rocket engines, Starters, Recovery Wadding, a launch pad system, and 4 high-quality 1.5-volt AA alkaline batteries for launch use (sold separately).
- SOARS UP TO 400 FT.: Our replica 2198 Estes Blue Origin New Shepard model rocket continues the original’s legacy and features a 10.34-inch height, a large parachute, and a projected altitude of 400 ft. (122 m) on a C6-3 Estes rocket engine (sold separately). It is also compatible with a C5-3 rocket engine.
- READY TO ASSEMBLE: Rocket building inspires creativity and a passion for science and outer space! Our beginner rocket kit comes ready to build and requires 10 minutes of assembly time. Pair it with a Porta Pad II Launch Pad and Electron Beam Launch Controller (sold separately) for a successful rocket blastoff.
- SAFETY FIRST, FUN ALWAYS: Our rockets are designed to be used with the NAR (National Association of Rocketry) model-rocket safety code. Always ensure you have an appropriate launch site, stand back at least 15 ft., insert the safety key, issue a countdown, and then you can let your rocket fly!
- WE IGNITE IMAGINATIONS: Since 1958, Estes has created educational rocket kits designed for an unforgettable launch experience. As a family-owned company, we have grown to offer exciting STEM products that engage aspiring rocketeers and the future minds of aerospace.
