This impressive model rocket kit includes eye-catching features like laser etched fin and wing panels, amazing surface mounted details, authentic-looking plastic engine nozzles, and colorful water-slide decals.
While its real-life counterpart glides home after inserting a second-stage booster pod into orbit, the Estes® LEO Space Train™ launches on a single-stage C6-3 engine, reaching up to 300 feet, and returns gently to Earth under its own, 18 inch parachute. The realistically styled LEO Space Train looks great on the pad and on display. Rocketeers definitely want this one in their fleet!
