Customer Reviews
After finding a bag full of a few Estes rockets while cleaning out my office, I finished building the unfinished ones and went out to launch them. I was immediately hooked! A couple weeks later I got some advice from the rocketry Discord channel and ended up purchasing the Journey 75 with a plastic nose cone, a 12" Nomex sheet, and the recommended Aeropack motor retainer.
The rocket showed up pretty quickly and I was able to get right to work! Since the kit is fiberglass, I made sure to use gloves and a respirator just in case. Everything went together great and the video was very helpful for guiding me through the build. 10/10 would build again!
I flew on a single use Aero tech H219 and included a Tile, Estes altimeter, and an old smartphone with the Insane Rocketry app. I hit an apogee of 1641' and successfully recovered my rocket, earning my Level 1 Certification!
I look forward to saving up some money and purchasing a dual deployment kit from Wildman in the future!
Very good build experience. Used for successful Level 1 certification, and looking forward to many flights into the future.
If you want a great L1 rocket robust enough to fly again and again this is it. IMO this was perfectly designed for the I500 DMS motor. Just put a tracker in it if using motor deploy. Rips!
This is a great kit. I purchased and recommended the nose cone upgrade and the motor retainer.
High quality of the product is evident in every aspect of the rocket parts in this project. I was looking for a high performance rocket to assemble that will be capable of high speeds, high altitude and acceleration. The Journey 75 is that rocket. Use a tail cone to move the motor heat aft, the optional fiberglass nose cone; and also use the Mach 1 nose cone avbay for your tracker or altimeter, and you will have a great rocket for the range.
