(38 cm) parachute is preassembled and ready to use on model rockets that require a 15 in. parachute. The perfect size when an 18 in. parachute is too big and a 12 in. parachute is too small. ## Features - RECOVERY PARACHUTE FOR ROCKET MODEL KIT: Estes rocket model kits require a recovery system for a safe trip back to Earth after every launch. This preassembled 2265 15-inch (38-centimeter) Parachute comes ready to help you recover mid-power, large-body, payload, and other rocket types that need a bit more drag during their descent - 2-COLOR DESIGN: The 2265 15-Inch Parachute features a 2-color design to add some style in the sky after your Estes rocket hits apogee (the peak point of altitude). This rocket parachute is intended for use by ages 10+ with adult supervision for ages 12 and under. Always replace a parachute when it appears torn or damaged, and always use recovery wadding to protect it from rocket engine heat. - LAUNCH NECESSITY: Whether you’re working with a beginner model-rocket-building kit or an advanced-level replica, a recovery parachute belongs in every rocket recovery kit. This rocket model parachute is perfectly sized for rockets that are too small for an 18-inch parachute and too large for a 12-inch parachute. - SAFETY FIRST, FUN ALWAYS: Our rockets and rocket launch accessories are designed to be used with the NAR (National Association of Rocketry) model-rocket safety code. Always ensure you have an appropriate launch site, stand back at least 15 ft., insert the safety key, issue a countdown, and then you can let your rocket fly! - WE IGNITE IMAGINATIONS: Since 1958, Estes has created educational rocket kits designed for an unforgettable launch experience. As a family-owned company, we have grown to offer exciting STEM products that engage aspiring rocketeers and the future minds of aerospace. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00A4UXATY | | Age Range Description | Kid | | Art Craft Kit Type | Model Building | | Best Sellers Rank | #120,383 in Toys ( See Top 100 in Toys ) #15 in Pre-Built Model Spacecraft | | Brand Name | Estes | | Color | Brown/a | | Customer Reviews | 4.4 4.4 out of 5 stars (149) | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00047776022652 | | Included Components | Estes Rockets 2265 15" Rocket Parachute | | Item Dimensions | 17.8 x 2.5 x 10.2 centimeters | | Item Type Name | Model Rockets | | Manufacturer | Estes | | Manufacturer Part Number | 2265 | | Material Type | Plastic | | Model Name | 2265 15" Rocket Parachute | | Model Number | 2265 | | Number of Pieces | 1 | | Paint Type | Watercolor | | Product Style | Modern | | Seasons | All Seasons | | Set Name | 15" Rocket Parachute | | Size | L | | Subject Character | Rockets | | Theme | Rocket | | UPC | 047776022652 | ## Product Details - **Age range (description):** Kid - **Brand:** Estes - **Colour:** Brown/a - **Item dimensions L x W x H:** 17.8 x 2.5 x 10.2 centimeters - **Theme:** Rocket ## Images ![Estes 15" Parachute - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/8186ViKnGaL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: This comes assembled with the string and everything right?** A: Yes that is correct.
