Fun Rocket! Review by Red7fifty

TTW fins helps alignment, slower lift off and slower flight (compared to a skinny rocket), lets everyone enjoy the engine noise more! Lots of fun. (Posted on 8/12/11)

Love It Review by RocketDude

Just came back from launch and it hasa great slow-mo launch and keeps coming back for more launches. If you use the Aerotech E20-4, it can go about 1200 feet. All in all a great rocket! (Posted on 7/11/11)

What a rocket Review by Paul

The Big Daddy is a stubby little guy, but don't let his short stature fool you. This rocket is constantly a top performer and keeps coming back for more. Everyone at the launch site always stops and watches when I slide Big Daddy on the launch rod. Definitely recommend anyone add a Big Daddy to their fleet. (Posted on 7/1/11)

Good Stubby Review by clown2theleft

The Estes Big Daddy is a fun, basic stubby. The stock re/blue paint scheme is okay, but stubbies are superb canvases for over-the-top paintjobs (mine is green on green with ghost flames). The TTW fins are a bonus to the usual Estes offerings, and if the obvious upgrades are incorporated into the build: epoxy construction and fillets, engine hook/thrust ring omission, 60" kevlar shock cord, appropriate nose cone weight, this will a good entry-level mid-power rocket, with impressive flights on the Aerotech F-21 or F-35 composite engines.

Will be a favorite in your Fleet Review by vdotmatrix

Consistently a great performer. Stable flight and rugged. I have flown this baby on E motors. My Model looks exactly as pictured above. Can't enough about this marvelous model. Flies well the E motors but would love to fit it with an RMS, it's design would easily withstand this!!! Awesome Rocket. (Posted on 5/3/11)

Awesome Rocket Review by JSTR

Truely a fun rocket to build and fly! Even without epoxy I've found this rocket to be one of my most durable, and has flown the most in my collection! I wish they still had the original paint scheme, and decals. (Posted on 3/18/11)
