Rocket Kits and Kites

The Estes TimeWarp™ brings a bold new energy to the launch pad. Its three mini engine cluster ignites together to produce an incredible burst of thrust that commands attention and delivers a breathtaking ascent. When the smoke clears, you will know you just witnessed one of the most thrilling launches in model rocketry.

Each flight offers a coordinated ignition sequence that creates a balanced, stable climb straight into the sky. This rocket delivers performance that goes beyond expectation and gives advanced flyers the kind of power that makes every countdown worth the wait.

Built for Advanced Rocketeers

Engineered for serious builders, the TimeWarp rewards careful craftsmanship with exceptional flight performance. Its laser cut balsa fins and aerodynamic body provide smooth, consistent stability while minimizing drag. Every component has been designed to enhance flight precision, making each launch feel professional and controlled.

The bold military inspired design brings a commanding look to the field or your display shelf. The TimeWarp combines aesthetic appeal with real performance, standing as proof that technical precision and striking design can coexist perfectly in one advanced model rocket.

Precision Cluster Launching

The TimeWarp’s triple engine configuration creates synchronized ignition and balanced thrust across all three mounts. To power this system, pair it with the Pro Series II™ Launch Controller and 3 Cell Li Po (11.1 V) Battery. This combination provides the ignition reliability needed for flawless cluster launches and delivers consistent lift every time.

Always use identical mini engines for each flight to maintain even thrust and stability throughout ascent. The result is a launch that is both controlled and powerful, giving you the kind of performance that makes cluster flying one of the most rewarding experiences in model rocketry.

Prepare for Liftoff

Before you hit the launch pad, gather your Porta Pad® II Launch Pad, recovery wadding, starters, and plugs along with your choice of recommended engines including 1/2A3 2T, A3 4T, or A10 3T. The TimeWarp stands 25 inches tall, weighs just 2.5 ounces, and can soar to 500 feet before drifting gently back to Earth under its bright 15 inch parachute.

When you are ready for a launch that delivers pure excitement and precision control, there is only one choice. The TimeWarp is designed to challenge, impress, and reward those who are ready to master the art of cluster flight.
