Mid-Power Rocket Kits

Mid-Power rocket kits are a little bigger than the ordinary Estes-style kits you may be familiar with. We classify mid-power kits as those using the bigger "D"-through-"F" size rocket engines. Below is our selection of Mid-Power kits. You'll see that they come in a variety of skill levels. Click on the "more info" button to learn about the kit, and to order it for fast delivery.

Actual Customer Comment:

"You have been an absolute star as I would have a very large Christmas present problem if you hadn't been able to get this to me. This is for my husband - I am afraid I know nothing about rockets or modelling! As for me, only very positive feedback - you have been so helpful and it has been good to have prompt replies to queries and to be kept up to date with the status of the order." -- Gill Hedley
