Continuing my quest for rugged everyday and every condition flyers, I ordered a Giant Leap Rocketry T-Bolt.
I have never owned a GLR kit. I've bought items from GLR back in the early 2000s, but nothing recently.
The T-Bolt seemed to be a good requirements fit. Tough. Versatile. Simple. Easy to build.
I ordered it with a Slimline 29mm adapter as honestly, I don't see myself shoving to many 38mm motors in this.
I was a bit tardy on getting photos of the parts... but all that is done in this picture is bondo putty added and sanded off the body tube. The spirals on the "Magnaframe" tubing are like the Grand Canyon.
And the bell shaped motor retainer is JB welded on. I must admit, I'd probably never buy one myself, but they are cool looking!
The kit is VERY complete and the quality seems first rate.
