Estes Mercury Redstone Review

This kit is NOT for beginners or the easy-angered! The Assembly of small plastic parts in this kit should be against the Geneva Convention. Regardless, it requires skillful use in profanity.

I had this kit when I was a kid and the red plastic parts were not part of the kit. The kit came with balsa dowels and we had to build the structure from that material. It was horrendously difficult.

Just ordered this rocket, don’t plan to launch it tho. Hoping to make it a shelf queen and it’s my first time building one with all them details I’m scared it won’t turn out pretty then I’ll have to launch it and buy another one.

Very cool! Just take your time with the escape tower, that's the hardest part.

Hi. What engine did you use?

[@apexrocketry]

An Estes C6-3 (not easy to find!)

This is an excellent kit with great scale detail! It flies very well if built correctly. Your lack of building skills and use of "super glue" are just a couple of examples of why you give a lackluster rating. This is the first video of yours I have watched, and I won't watch anymore.

This isn't an airport, no need to announce your departure. It's a hobby, bro. Chill.
