The Estes C6-3 is a powerful, single-stage model rocket engine designed for medium-weight rockets that require a shorter delay before deploying the recovery system. With strong initial thrust and a 3-second delay, it's ideal for launches where a quicker transition to recovery is needed—especially for rockets that reach their peak altitude faster or descend more rapidly.
