The Estes Big Bertha® is the rocket that makes your heart race before the countdown even reaches zero.

Big Bertha® does not rush the experience. Her slow, realistic liftoff gives you time to hear the engine roar, watch the rocket rise, and feel the excitement build as she climbs higher and higher. It is the kind of launch that draws cheers, cameras, and wide eyes every single time.

Big Presence on the Pad and in the Sky

With her larger size and unmistakable silhouette, Big Bertha commands attention before launch and keeps it long after liftoff. Powered by standard Estes engines, she can soar up to 500 feet while remaining smooth and stable, creating a flight you can actually follow from start to finish.

The Perfect Ending to Every Flight

Just when you think the show is over, Big Bertha delivers one more highlight. The bright 18 inch parachute blossoms high above the field, slowing her descent and giving you plenty of time to track her landing. It is a satisfying, graceful return that makes recovery part of the fun.

Built With Care and Meant to Be Flown

Big Bertha is crafted from quality Estes body tubes, laser cut balsa wood fins, and a molded plastic nose cone, giving you a build that feels rewarding from the first step to the final decal. Applying the waterslide decals brings the rocket to life, creating a finished model you will be proud to place on the pad.

A Rocket You Will Never Leave at Home

Once Big Bertha earns her first flight, she becomes a permanent part of your launch lineup. This is the rocket you grab when you want a guaranteed great launch, the one that delivers smiles, memories, and that unmistakable feeling of watching something you built soar into the sky.
