    Estes Flying Model Rocket Kit Gnome 0886 1 Bulk Pack Kit
    The Gnome is chrome at its hottest! This smooth, ballistic bullet is a classy looking little sprite with blistering speed to match! Standing just a little over 10 inches tall with super shiny chrome and sapphire blue colors, this is one great looking, mini engine powered cloud chaser that can reach altitudes of well over 800 feet. Recovery is fast and reliable with its fluorescent colored streamer for easy tracking after a super fast flight!
    The Gnome is another in our series of E2X (Easy to Assemble) kits and features a single piece, chrome wrapped body tube, a bright blue precolored one piece fin unit, nose cone and upper launch lug ring. The rocket takes about 30 minutes to build and is finished off with a colorful, easy to apply self-stick decal.
    With its simple assembly and precolored parts, it's an excellent choice for the first time rocketeer.
