Want to fly the ultimate multi-stage rocket? The Estes Comanche-3 is a unique three stage rocket with unbelievable performance! The first stage booster gets things going by kicking this monster off the pad. After a quick burn, the second stage is lit, then things get really exciting while the next two stages start to reach for the clouds. After a quick second stage engine burn, the third stage is ignited and the rocket streaks for some serious cloud topping altitude - over 1/2 mile (805 m) straight up!
The Comanche-3 stands nearly 3 1/2 feet (104 cm) tall and has many features that make it an easy weekend building project. Updated with laser cut balsa fins, molded nose cone and colorful, green and white waterslide decals, this great looking rocket is a must have for the serious rocketeer! The first and second stage boosters are tumble recovery, the third stage floats back to the ground with two huge colorful streamers. With the power of three engines propelling it...you know this ballistic bullet is going to deliver an awesome model rocket flying experience!
