Nova Payloader Estes Rockets

The Estes Nova Payloader rocket is an all time favorite that rocket aficionados have enjoyed building and flying for years! It's truly the number one choice of rocketeers wanting to experiment with payloads. This rocket stands over 21 inches tall and has a clear 4 inch payload section that can be filled with all sorts of fun things, from bugs to mini dolls. Launch a small action figure or try some gumballs and see how high your rocket flies. As a science experiment, see how your specimen withstands a suborbital journey.

This payload equipped rocket kit features laser cut wood fins for precision fit, a plastic nose cone, easy to apply self stick-decals and a colorful 12 inch preassembled parachute for secure landings from 1,000 feet high. The Nova Payloader is one of the easiest payload rockets to build and finish, making it perfect for the first time rocket builder!
