The Estes Athena is officially in the running for the best model rocket for beginners. This thing is straight-up fun. When it comes to the basics of launching a model rocket, pushing the launch button and watching a rocket fly into the air this has everything you need. Especially if you're in a hurry to get a rocket in the sky, or launching with a young child who doesn't have the skills to build this is the rocket for you.

We need a far away camera to shoot the rocket speed upwards please

@gsr4535 3 года назад

Nice videos.........hope you're still building and flying model rockets! 👍

@michaelboutelle1925 Год назад

Great video! I enjoyed the controller video! Gave me some ideas I have not yet considered.

@paint57 4 года назад

I always feel good when I get a chance to fly rockets, been flying since 1968. Whether high-powered or low-powered, the rush of the lift off is thrilling. Love your videos, keep them coming.

@themodelrocket220 4 года назад

Same here thanks Chuck! Hope to have as much experience as you one day.

@TheChessNoob1 Год назад

No new videos???? What’s up with that????

@933pilgrim 2 года назад

Any chance to use micro video camera on the body of this rocket?

@solomonaerospace5932 3 года назад

I love this channel! I just launched my first model rocket, the Alpha III, and I was wondering, would this be a good next step for me?

@themodelrocket220 3 года назад

It all depends, what was your favorite part of the Alpha 3? Was it the build? (If that's the case this would be a terrible next rocket because there is no build hahaha)

@drodriguez3935 3 года назад

I can tell the way you wrap that parachute that you had the same little hand tossed parachute guy the ice cream guy would sale in the late 80s early 90s

@themodelrocket220 3 года назад

Hahahaha, maybe that's what got us dreaming about launching things into the sky

@nightkun04 3 года назад

Wow, awesome, want to do too but I'm in Thailand I don't know where to get it

@vijithasanoj5335 4 года назад

Wow okay superb! Just what I wanted ! I have a question for you are you going to stick with the normal model rockets or will you make something pretty advanced like flight computer and thrust vector control for your rocket?

@themodelrocket220 4 года назад

That's the plan but not for a while. We're starting with the basics and hoping to build up to the crazy stuff. But if you haven't already go check out bps.space (ru-vid.com/show-UCILl8ozWuxnFYXIe2svjHhg) you'll freak out over what he's creating over there

Sounds like a Greekster works for Estes.

@3dprintinglife 4 года назад

Brilliant! I'm thinking of buying the estes alpha 3 kit as I'm just getting into model rocketeering.

@themodelrocket220 4 года назад

You'll love the Alpha 3, it's an awesome place to start!!

@gopalverma25015 3 года назад

Hi man I launched a hi hi flyer r how I m thinking to build one of them fully homemade I bought some tubes now I need is some kind of shape of the fin and the nose cone too pls help me

@themodelrocket220 3 года назад

Love that let us know how it goes!! We hope to create 'homemade' tutorials in the future but don't have any ready right now

@themodelrocket220 3 года назад

But maybe this will help 🤷‍♂️ themodelrocket.com/model-rocket-fins-101-purpose-shape-size-and-placement/

Ok one minute in and I’m confused about the RTF Ready to Fly comment but then .. “but.. you’ll need engines, launch controllers and launch pad” 😬

@Muzly 7 месяцев назад

I don't know about the Athena kit, but the other RTF kit I bought comes with EVERYTHING you need, including launch pad, wadding, motors and igniter. It's literally all you need to fly a rocket.

@mplsmark222 5 месяцев назад

RTF just means the rocket is fully assembled, or mostly assembled, decorated with decals and it can save hours of time.

@florenbaron7111 4 месяца назад

How do you not loose the rocket?

@TheKnotcase 4 года назад

RTF rockets! That's my kind of rocket. Also in the process of building your launch controller. Some parts are still being shipped to me... I'll keep you posted!

@themodelrocket220 4 года назад

Yes!! I can't wait to see it!! I love a good mix. Sometimes the build can be a lot of fun, but sometimes life is crazy and I just want to pull it out of the box put an engine in it and send it

@SJ.Sharkstero 7 месяцев назад

wackkkkk! just a lame video. Camera way to close didnt get to see the rocket’s trajectory or it climbing. thumbs down

@akkraineproduction8147 4 года назад

This channel is so underated

@themodelrocket220 4 года назад

Dang thank you! Every sub, thumbs up, and bell notification helps us spread the word a little more!

@SD_Marc 5 месяцев назад

Hey, I built a launcher, inspired by yours. Today was it's first launches and it went great. Thanks!

@hinthegroove9740 4 месяца назад

You took me back to my childhood in the 70’s I swear I had that same model rocket among 3 or 4 I remember having My hardware was stock from the big toy store at the mall though Thank you dear mother ❤

@ChickenGamerYT. 6 месяцев назад

Hey I have a question. Is this thing reusable

@mplsmark222 5 месяцев назад

Do you mean the rocket? Of course it’s reusable. I suspect there are model rockets that have flown hundreds of times. The engines are not reusable however.

@ChickenGamerYT. 5 месяцев назад

@@mplsmark222 Ok thanks for letting me know

@Bozar069 4 года назад

Do you build any cool rockets?

@themodelrocket220 4 года назад

Yeah dude, we're just trying to build content from the ground up. Cover a couple fun entry level rockets, basic tips for getting started, then working up to more advanced builds, scratch builds, HPR, etc...

@Bozar069 4 года назад

@@themodelrocket220 Sounds cool man. I subscribed as soon as I found your channel and am hoping to see some cool kits and builds.

@swatisinghmar702 3 года назад

Bro did the booster and fuel and all launch pad and all were included in box ?

@themodelrocket220 3 года назад

No. You'll see at 2:13(ish) a list of the things not included in the box to launch. We have links to all those pieces you can buy. If you don't have a launch pad and don't want to build your own launch controller I suggest you look at a starter set like the Alpha 3 or Tandem X ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-wdm9zuMKqrk.html&t ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-haBK2bPcz3U.html&t
