I was thinking $19.69 would be a good price
If true that's terrific.Soytenlee it will be priced $19.69
I’ve got a chance to save some money on a motor purchase. If you were going to buy 18mm Aerotech single-use D10 motors for this rocket, would you get the 3-second delay or the 5-second delay? The recommended Estes motor is the C6-3. I know we don’t have a final weight on this, but what’s your best guess for the optimum delay for a D10?
Nope.My 2 cents - Estes should sell this as a complete RTF kit, including launch controller, pad, and a couple motors. Hopefully they can get it into mass-market stores like Walmart and Target. This would surely push the price near $50, but it would allow a kid and his parent to pick one up on a whim and launch it at the park that same day.
Nope.
Intended to sell many thousands and expectation is many will be desktop static display models. If a large percentage are flown, then that is great and people will be able to easily find launch sets and motors with whatever info is packed in the kit and on the kit packaging.
WHY drive the price point up and lose thousands of sale when most of the target customers will not want to launch them?
I will probably buy more than one. I would like to modify it to fly with the F-1
engine attached. I'll be the first to make a guess on the price. I say around $25.00.
The Estes catalog preview video shows the 1/200 Saturn V.
I see no evidence that that is anything but the rocket. Certainly that catalog page just shows a rocket.Looks like it's going to have a clear slip on fin unit as well.
Hopefully that price is for the starter set.
