This is a ten year old Der Red Max clone that I built using odds, ends and parts scrounged from other kits. (Estes has since reissued this rocket.) The parachute was one that I bought some years back in an Ebay auction. They were 10 for $1, so I made out pretty well on the deal. Unfortunately this one broke the snap swivel and drifted off for parts unknown. The rocket wasn't damaged.
