hey, i want to start model rocketry. what do you think i should get first and the folowing things in order. may be even where to buy them? and prices?
oh and i live in vancouver b.c. so maybe places close there
I would recommend you go to one of the Michael's craft stores https://hosted.where2getit.com/michaels/?addressline=vancouver&country=CA&searchradius=50 and pick up an Estes Starter set. You'll get two rockets, the launch pad and a launch controller in the starter set. I would estimate 99% of the people on this site started out with Estes or similar rockets. It's a great way to get started.
After you've gotten a few flight out of the starter set, go back, Micheal's also has motors and kits.
You might want to sign up for their email newletter. They send a lot of 40% off single item coupons and once in a while a 50% off single item or 25% off whole purchase coupons.

I'll be purchasing from Apogee since they took the time to analyze Quest's MLAS kit. I've never purchased from them but if they took time to examine thing then that's good in my book.
There is no charge to watch his instructional videos. Estes makes some nice rockets. Most stores that carry any rocket stuff have some of theirs. I'd still suggest building a skill level 1 rocket first. The packaging identifies the skill level.
umm apogee rockets only ship to us... and i live in canada. also i dont want to buy online.
okay i will watch some of the videos and see what i learn.
