Soaring onto the launch range with fierce attitude, the Raptor is a single-stage model rocket that means business. With a commanding presence at nearly 29 inches tall and a sturdy 41mm body diameter, this bird of prey is built for rocketeers who love bold, classic lines and reliable performance. Designed for a single Estes D12 engine, the Raptor delivers swift, straight flights to over 800 feet - ideal for sport flying with a satisfying kick. The Raptor’s proportions balance slender elegance with enough heft to give it authority on the pad, making it a standout at club launches or on your display shelf.
Construction is a builder’s delight: think robust tube construction, laser-cut fins for easy alignment, and a nose cone that screams speed. Assembly is straightforward for anyone with a few flights under their belt, but rewarding enough for seasoned hobbyists to appreciate the details. Recovery is handled by a classic parachute system, ensuring gentle returns and minimizing chase time. Whether you’re looking for a dependable flier for weekend launches or a sharp-looking kit to dress up your fleet, the Raptor is engineered for reliability and repeat flights. Pair it with your favorite finishing techniques and you’ll have a model that soars above the rest - again and again.
