Description
- RECOVERY PARACHUTE FOR ROCKET MODEL KIT: Estes rocket model kits require a recovery system for a safe trip back to Earth after every launch. This preassembled 2265 15-inch (38-centimeter) Parachute comes ready to help you recover mid-power, large-body, payload, and other rocket types that need a bit more drag during their descent
- 2-COLOR DESIGN: The 2265 15-Inch Parachute features a 2-color design to add some style in the sky after your Estes rocket hits apogee (the peak point of altitude). This rocket parachute is intended for use by ages 10+ with adult supervision for ages 12 and under. Always replace a parachute when it appears torn or damaged, and always use recovery wadding to protect it from rocket engine heat.
- LAUNCH NECESSITY: Whether you’re working with a beginner model-rocket-building kit or an advanced-level replica, a recovery parachute belongs in every rocket recovery kit. This rocket model parachute is perfectly sized for rockets that are too small for an 18-inch parachute and too large for a 12-inch parachute.
- SAFETY FIRST, FUN ALWAYS: Our rockets and rocket launch accessories 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.
