The Minotaur is a great looking and performing mid-size rocket. Over 28 inches tall, the kit features a blow molded plastic nose cone, laser-cut balsa fins, six boosters (for show only) and a rugged 24mm diameter motor mount. Flights with an Enerjet F44-4W will go to almost 1,600 feet. Then your Minotaur will recover gently on the big 16-inch nylon parachute. Includes big, easy-to-apply self-adhesive decals.
This rocket was designed by internationally famous designer Scott Branche.
