This is a video designed to show Cubs and Den leaders how to make their Estes Alpha 3 rockets -but if anyone else finds it useful then 'happy days!'
Just noticed a slight glitch, the mylar ring goes against the 1" mark and not the 2" 1/4 mark.

  • @Alienworld9

    Glad to be of service to a fellow rocketeer! :-)

  • this is an outstanding tutorial! Estes should be paying you a royalty for this tutorial! :-) very well done!

  • @TsujiBan

    Many thanks for the kind comments. Hope its been of use. I found doing this video tutorial was easier that trying to explain it to half a dozen cub dens on different meet nights. It must have worked as they all turned up with rockets and flew them successfully. :-)

  • where do you buy single rockets like that

  • Most good model/hobby shops will sell the Estes Alpha 3 as a single rocket. These rockets came as a multipack for use with the Cub Scouts. They came from Tech Toys in Parsippany NJ.
