The Estes Wizard is a true favorite among teachers, students, and rocketry clubs. With its sleek, minimum-drag design, this rocket demonstrates how streamlined engineering impacts altitude and flight duration. Each launch becomes an engaging STEM experience that encourages students to ask questions, collect data, and think critically about how design choices affect performance.
Hands-On Learning for Intermediate Builders
The Wizard is an excellent choice for classrooms ready to take their rocketry projects to the next level. Students will learn essential building techniques such as sanding, gluing, and assembling components with precision. These hands-on skills not only reinforce STEM concepts but also foster patience, attention to detail, and a sense of accomplishment once the rocket is complete.
Designed for High Performance
With a long, slender body and lightweight construction, the Wizard soars to impressive heights—making it perfect for studies in altitude measurement, drift distance, and recovery dynamics. Its reliable streamer recovery ensures quick and visible descents, helping educators track results and emphasize the physics of safe flight recovery systems.
Perfect for Classroom Competitions
Educators and youth leaders often use the Wizard for classroom contests and science fair projects, including drift studies and duration competitions. Its consistent flight pattern and outstanding altitude capabilities make it ideal for experiments that require repeatable, measurable results. Whether students are learning about propulsion, flight dynamics, or data analysis, the Wizard provides a captivating and educational launch experience every time.
