Q: How do you launch it? Remote? Light a fuse?

First off you will have to buy the motors separately. They do not come with the rocket. Then you should buy a launch kit that consist of a launch pad stand, blast deflector, rod and wired remote control that takes either AA or AAA batteries. All of what I mentioned can be purchased separatly but cost much less if you buy as a package. Go to Estes.com to look at their products. A great deal is the Estes Eliminator XL. Come with a large Rocket and all the launch produces less the motors. The only issue with this rocket it is rather large and for a beginner and requires D or E class motors and ALOT! of room to launch...and I mean alot. Best part is you can find this complete kit on Ebay for around $25.00. Estes is $30 plus shipping. Launch kit itself cost that much or more. Google Model Rocketry and there is plenty of info.

Q: What rocket engine does it require?

it can use a lot of different engines from A8-3 (recommended for the first flight) up to C6-5 or C6-7 (which produce the highest altitude). Other ones are A8-5, B4-4, B6-6

Q: Is this a level 1 model rocket

I don't remember their levels, but this model is easy to assemble. My elementary school science student had no trouble putting them together, and we had lots of fun launching them. though I ran the launcher.

Q: How far will it go away from launching point answer in feet or yards

It depends on how well you aim relative to the wind. With the most powerful motor it can reach 1600 ft. altitude. And it can drift anywhere from nothing to miles (in a hurricane for example). For a typical launch on a calm day, expect it to return somewhere within 500 ft. (or much less with a smaller motor) I find that use of larger motors is less fun... The with a C6-7, the thing disappears in a quarter second and you're lucky if you see it come down. With the smallest engines, you see it take off, deploy it's parachute and then float down within a hundred feet.
