Black Brant II Intermediate Model Rocket Kit (EST7243)

The Black Brant II Model Rocket Kit represents the pinnacle of sounding rocket technology with its rich history as one of the most successful groups of sounding rockets ever launched. This advanced 1:13 scale model is a detailed replica of the primary research vehicle by Canada Bristol Aerospace, making it an excellent choice for beginners or experienced builders looking to explore scale modeling.

After a 20-year hiatus, the Black Brant II kit returns to the Estes lineup, sporting a classic design reminiscent of the 90s. It features high-quality laser-cut wood fins and plastic components, ensuring not just ease of construction but also reliable performance during flights. With a remarkable flying capability, this rocket is known to achieve impressive altitudes, placing it among the highest-flying models in the Estes scale collection.

Originally developed in the late 1950s, the Black Brant family of sounding rockets has maintained its reputation for reliability, delivering scientific payloads at high altitudes more than half a century later. The Black Brant II model stands nearly 25 inches tall and includes intricate scale details, allowing for a stunning finish. Builders can enhance their model with detailed waterslide decals and an 18-inch parachute designed for gentle recoveries, while the recommended D12-7 engine (sold separately) propels it to heights of up to 1300 feet.
