The Mayhem™ is Estes’ latest advanced rocket kit built for rocketeers who want more from their launch day. With the capability to soar up to 2,100 feet, this sleek, two-stage model delivers a thrilling, high-flying experience from lift-off to recovery.
Whether you’re chasing altitude records or fine-tuning your staging technique, Mayhem™ offers a powerful, precision-based platform for serious flight performance.
Two-Stage Versatility
