Estes Mean Machine

This is an interesting rocket. It is very long (over 6 ft.), and it looks like it should be a high power rocket, or a least a large model rocket. However, it weighs less than one pound and uses D motors, so it is classified as a small model rocket. It is a fun one to watch. It lumbers up to only a few hundred feet then opens with a large parachute. It is so long that it looks like it is barely off the ground when it opens. It's a crowd pleaser.
