Poor quality

The launch controller stopped working after a couple of launches. Light goes on when metal pin is inserted, but turns off when launch button is pressed. Brand new batteries.

Doesn't lit off the starter

This was a replacement. Light goes on and turns off with both key and button being pressed. Nothing happens. Either the launcher provides insufficient electric or the Estes starters are absolute trash.

Very disappointed. I had used este products as a child and immediately went to them as trusted vendor. So far we have launched 0 rockets and have replaced starters and launchers

We're sorry to hear that your experience wasn't up to par. We take all feedback seriously and would appreciate the chance to address your concerns. Please email us at service@estesrockets.com so we can assist you directly.

Trash

Cannot get either of the launchers to work. Brand new batteries.

I won’t fault the launcher itself. But the customer service at Estes is lacking. Originally, I was sent a new launcher without incident. They were easy to work with.

Now, the second launcher doesn’t want to work and getting a hold of anyone is really difficult. I’ve called. I’ve emailed. I sent a video of the non working device, and I’ve gotten no where.

Meanwhile, I’ve got a rocket that’s build that I can’t launch.
