Overview

Give students a practical starting point for turning rocket ideas into physical models. The BT-80 Body Tube, 9.5 in. supports custom builds, competition projects, and Mega Mosquito repairs while bringing measurement and design decisions to the worktable.

Keep Your Mega Mosquito Project Moving

This replacement body tube matches the tube used in the Estes Mega Mosquito kit (001335). Replacing a damaged tube also gives students an opportunity to examine how the rocket's components fit together and plan the steps needed for a repair.

Build Measurement into the Lesson

The tube measures 9.5 in. long, with a 2.558 in. inside diameter and 2.6 in. outside diameter. Have students use these dimensions to distinguish between internal and external measurements, check component compatibility, and document their design choices before assembly.

Support Original Student Designs

Spiral wound kraft paper with a glassine finish makes this BT-80 body tube a useful addition to your program's building supplies. Whether your group is developing a scratch-built rocket or preparing a competition entry, it offers a starting point for teamwork, problem-solving, and hands-on construction.
