BATON ROUGE, Louisianna USA -- Giant Leap Rocketry, Inc., announces the release of their new Tower Launchers. They attach to any pad that accepts a 1/2" rod.
"Towers are the secret weapon for high altitude flights, because they allow you to launch rockets without the use of lugs or rail guides", says Ed Shihadeh of Giant Leap Rocketry. This preserves the laminar flow over the rocket, thereby reducing drag. The Towers are all stainless steel, and connected with stainless steel welds. They also include adjustable standoffs to set the rocket above the blast deflector. These Tower Launchers are exclusive to Giant Leap Rocketry. Ed also welcomes club orders. The 38mm and 54mm Towers retail for $79.95, while the 3" Tower retails for $89.95. The Tower Launchers can be seen at http://www.giantleaprocketry.com. |
