Estes® Altimeter

The Estes Altimeter transforms classroom rocket launches into meaningful data-driven experiments. Students can measure, record, and compare flight altitudes, gaining firsthand experience with scientific methods, data collection, and interpretation. By turning every launch into a measurable event, educators can encourage inquiry-based learning and inspire students to think like engineers and scientists.

Real World STEM Applications

With the ability to store up to 10 flights, the Estes Altimeter allows students to test hypotheses, modify rocket designs, and track how changes affect performance. This reinforces key STEM principles such as variable control, measurement accuracy, and experimental repetition while keeping students actively engaged in discovery.

Designed for Classroom Versatility

Compact and durable, the altimeter integrates seamlessly into most Estes rockets without requiring complex setup. It is ideal for group projects, after-school programs, and competitions where data accuracy and repeatability are critical. The simple LCD readout makes it easy for students of all ages to read and record results quickly.
