Product Description

The Big Daddy is a real head-turner at the launch field! From the Skill Level 2 Series, not only is it a classic but it has been redesigned to handle our super powerful E engines and can reach a cloud topping 900 feet. If you prefer to keep it suborbital, it will also fly extremely well on Estes C11 or D engines. Rocketeers aged 18 and up can enjoy this high-powered kit, with adult supervision for those under 18.



The biggest little rocket around, at just under 20 inches tall with a 3 inch waist, this high powered rocket is built to handle E engine power!


The Big Daddy can reach a cloud topping 900 feet.
3, 2, 1, Lift Off!
BIG is better! Well in most things - big is better. Standing just under 20 inches tall and having a Big Daddy waist size of 3 inches, this high powered bullet is built to handle all the power you can stuff into the motor tube. The Estes rocket engineers have given the Big Daddy a contemporary new look and the biggest blow molded nose cones in the hobby. Whether launching on Estes E, C11 or D engines, this extreme rocket is returned safely on a colorful 24 inch preassembled parachute. Adding to your growing fleet of Rockets?

Blast Off to Learning Fun
In addition to the excitement and entertainment it provides, rocketry also has significant educational value. Model rockets transform kids into amateur rocket scientists, encouraging them to think about how the rockets work. Rocket building teaches kids the basics of propulsion, flight, and aerodynamics, and can help foster an early interest in science and engineering. Skill Level 2 is the first tier of more advanced kits that require beginner skills in model rocket construction, finishing and painting. Quality Estes body tubes, laser cut wood fins, molded plastic nose cone and waterslide decals make experience necessary to build this Skill Level 2 kit but the end result is worth the effort.

Mission Control
The Big Daddy requires a Porta-Pad E and E Launch Controller as well as Estes engines for the launch (not included). Estes C11-3, D12-3, D12-5 or E9-6 engines are recommended for all missions. Unless otherwise specified, all models require assembly. Tools, construction and finishing supplies sold separately. In order to launch, a launch system, model rocket engines, igniters, recovery wadding and four 'AA' alkaline batteries are required – sold separately unless otherwise specified. Read all instructions before beginning. Make sure you have all parts and supplies required. Test fit all parts before applying glue. Sand as necessary for precision assembly. Product color and shape may vary. When launching, stand back as far as the launch controller cord will allow (15 feet). Rocketry is not intended for indoor use. Choose a large field (500 feet), free of dry weeds and brown grass. Launch only with little or no wind and good visibility.

What's In The Box?
Estes body tubes, laser cut wood fins, molded plastic nose cone, waterslide decals, 24 inch preassembled parachute and instructions.



You will get hours of building fun with the rocket construction, finishing and painting needed to complete this impressive Skill Level 2 kit.

Beautiful Sage Green Set That is Super Soft and Cozy!
Color: Sage Green, Size: Queen
​I am absolutely in love with this sage green bedding set. The queen comforter has a gorgeous pre washed crinkled texture that gives the whole bedroom a really cozy, aesthetic look without needing to be ironed. It is incredibly fluffy and has just the right amount of weight to it, making it perfect to use all year round. The brushed sheets that come with the bed in a bag are surprisingly soft against the skin, and everything fit my queen mattress perfectly right out of the box. ​The color is a beautiful, calming sage green that matches my room decor perfectly. I have already washed the sheets and comforter once, and they held up great in the machine without losing their softness or shrinking.

Soft All-in-One Queen Bedding Set With Lightweight Comforter
Color: Beige, Size: Queen
This 7-piece queen bedding set is a solid all-in-one option for anyone looking to refresh a bedroom with a clean, aesthetic look without spending much. The comforter has a lightweight feel with a soft crinkled texture that gives it a relaxed, lived-in appearance while still looking modern and put together on the bed. The included sheets and pillowcases are soft and smooth against the skin, with enough comfort for year-round use. The comforter itself is light but still provides enough warmth for most seasons, making it practical for both warmer and cooler months. Fit is generally accurate for standard queen mattresses, and the set comes complete with everything needed, which makes setup simple and convenient. The overall look is cohesive, with a soft beige tone that blends easily into most room styles. While it is not a luxury heavyweight bedding set, it offers good comfort, style, and value for the price, making it a strong choice for guest rooms, first apartments, or an easy bedroom upgrade.

Standard Comforter. Thin Scratchy Sheets
Color: Dark Green, Size: Queen
This is an ok set for the price. I’m mostly using the comforter for a guest room. It’s a light-medium thickness. The color and size are true to description. The sheets that come with the set are very thin and not as soft as the comforter.

Comforter is nice, sheets are alright. Color is true!
Color: Burnt Orange, Size: Queen
This is a decent comforter set. The actual comforter isn’t too heavy, and would be perfect spring through fall in the Midwest. It’s a true queen size fit and the burnt orange color looks as it does in the photos. I ordered these before it mentioned they’re polyester. They definitely don’t feel as breathable as cotton sheets but as far polyester goes, they feel soft. The sheets wrinkle easily but the comforter feels durable. If you’re looking for an affordable sheet set and you’re cool with polyester, this is a good option. Also of note is that 2 of the pillow cases have a little extra fabric on the outer rim to look more “decorative.”
