ESTES Space Shuttle Columbia First Launch And Landing (New Version)

The maiden flight of Estes Space Shuttle Columbia which this launch occurred on April 13, 2024 at 7:26AM. This is the beginning of future shuttle model rockets which I plan to launch a bunch this year. The new version of Nasa TV but in rocket model version. I had to remake this video. Thank you for watching my videos and your support

Aussi captivant et stressant qu'un vrai décollage !!! :)

Great job! I love the way you edited the audio so smoothly to cover countdown, launch, and landing.

Class backing tune, got to love a bit of Rush!

At T-60 seconds there will be a 1 minute hold in the count to replace launch controller batteries and reattach an igniter clip. Range Safety has cleared a curious dog from the launch complex and has given a GO for launch. Recovery crews are standing by to recover the booster should its parachute meet a rocket eating tree. This is Shuttle Launch Control.

Very nice launch and flight! Love your launch platform. 😄 I've built this kit twice - once when it first came out in the '70s/early '80s, and a later reissue, which is now a shelf queen. Looks like they've updated it since then to include a foam body for the Orbiter. Mine were both vacu-form, and it was a pain in the butt. This looks much easier to deal with!

Wow! Very nicely done. Congratulations from Manitoba, Canada.

Excellent choice for the music! Long time Rush fan here.

And the best background music in a video goes to……

I still have the 1:232 scale Estes shuttle, from the late 70s. It's a shelf queen now, because the plastic used has grown frail and brittle. This video convinced me to get this new version.

I had the Centuri Space Shuttle which was based on an early shuttle concepts which had a flyback booster. Both booster and orbiter flew really well. I spent a lot of time trimming and balancing them.

The level of acceleration of that Space Shuttle would kill everyone onboard instantly. NASA wants to offer you a 45 billion dollar contract to develop the next SLS rocket after seeing this video.

Sweet video! Love the Rush background music. Well thought out and produced. Kudos!

Rush in the background..launch cant go wrong

[@JohnSwindells-zm4sq]

Fantastic 😊.

[@IslandDigital]

I LOOOOOOVE THE RUSH COUNTDOWN song playing !!!! Excellent !

[@jwrockets]

Clever

[@jameshoagland9660]

Could it be possible to put a small servo in it to controll the landing?

[@allgood6760]

PDQ (Pretty Damn Quick)!... what scale is it?🚀

[@dennisnorsherd5868]

I wonder what Rush would think of this little toy remake?

[@tonybmw5785]

They'd probably get a buzz off it, Alex for sure was a RC flyer to break the monotony of touring.

[@SR71ABCD]

Did crew survive? No.. all died on impact.

[@buzzedalldrink9131]

I am disappointed it did explode like the real thing

[@KevinBalch-dt8ot]

Nice blockhouse, errr,,, doghouse.

[@DennisFreitas-bn7nh]

The real is off order 😂😂😂
Only in Hollywood 😂😂😂
