Estes Flying Model Rocket Kit Boxed Pro Pink Flamingo EST 9736
Big Color, Bigger Launch Energy
The Pro Series II™ Pink Flamingo™ is not the kind of rocket that blends into the background. With its 59 inch tall profile, bold styling, and unmistakable name, this rocket brings a fun, high-visibility attitude to the launch field while still delivering the kind of performance experienced Estes fans expect from the Pro Series II lineup.
From the moment it hits the pad, the Pink Flamingo makes a statement. It is bright, confident, and built for rocketeers who want a model that feels different from the usual fleet addition. Whether you are adding personality to your collection or looking for a crowd-pleaser for your next launch day, this rocket has the presence to turn heads before the countdown even begins.
Bright Style Meets Pro Series II Power
Behind the playful name is a capable Pro Series II model rocket designed for strong, impressive flights. The Pink Flamingo measures 59 inches long with a 2 inch diameter body and weighs approximately 11 ounces, giving it the size and stance to feel substantial without losing the excitement of fast, clean liftoffs.
Flown in its standard single stage configuration, the Pink Flamingo uses Estes E16-6 or F15-6 engines and can reach projected altitudes up to 1,000 feet. Recovery is handled by an 18 inch parachute, bringing the rocket back for another round of launch-day fun.
Fly It Your Way With Adapter Options
For rocketeers who want more flexibility, the Pink Flamingo can also be flown with select 24 mm engines when paired with the 24 mm to 29 mm Engine Adapter, sold separately. With the adapter installed, D12-3 and E12-4 engines become available single stage options, making it easier to match your flight profile to your launch field, engine supply, or preferred altitude range.
That added flexibility makes the Pink Flamingo especially appealing for hobbyists who like to fine-tune each launch. You can keep things lower and more manageable with adapter-supported engine choices, or load up a 29 mm engine when you want the full single stage Pro Series II experience.
Add a Pro Series II™ E2X® Booster for Multi-Stage Excitement
The Pink Flamingo becomes even more exciting when paired with the Pro Series II™ E2X® Booster, sold separately. This booster transforms the rocket into a multi-stage configuration, opening up a wider range of engine combinations and pushing the rocket to even higher projected altitudes.
With the booster added, the Pink Flamingo can reach up to 1,775 feet using an F15-0 to F15-6 configuration. Other multi-stage combinations allow you to tailor the flight, with some configurations using 29 mm engines only and others requiring the 24 mm to 29 mm Engine Adapter, sold separately. It is a rocket you can grow into, experiment with, and bring back to the pad in new ways.
Choose Your Flight Profile
The Pro Series II™ Pink Flamingo™ gives you more than one way to chase the sky. Fly it as a powerful single stage rocket, add the 24 mm to 29 mm Engine Adapter to unlock additional 24 mm engine options, or pair it with the Pro Series II™ E2X® Booster for thrilling multi-stage flights that can reach up to 1,775 feet.
Use the chart below to compare each recommended setup, from lower-altitude single stage flights to the Pink Flamingo’s highest-flying booster combinations. Multi-stage configurations pair the rocket with the Pro Series II™ E2X® Booster, while the adapter column shows when the 24 mm to 29 mm Engine Adapter is used to expand your engine options.
Built for the Pro Series II Launch Field
The Pink Flamingo is designed for use with the Pro Series II™ Launch Pad or Pro Series II™ Launch Rail. It can be launched from a 1/4 inch launch rod or a Pro Series II launch rail, giving experienced rocketeers the proper setup for stable, confident flights.
If you love rockets with personality, performance, and room to explore different launch configurations, the Pro Series II™ Pink Flamingo™ belongs in your fleet. Fly it single stage, add the engine adapter for more options, or pair it with the booster for an unforgettable multi-stage climb. However you choose to launch it, this flamingo is ready to fly high.
