LOC Precision Flying Model Rocket Kit 2.26" LASERLOC 223 LOC LL223
The LaserLOC series was one of the first production minimum diameter MID-HIGH POWER kits available to the public. Keeping the tradition going we have a few modern day tweaks that will put your skills to the test. A gentle laser etch around the slots allow for easier glassine removal. Multi-slot airframe allow the fins to click into the booster. Precut 4oz fiberglass cloth can be easily epoxied from fin-airframe-fin. This reinforcement will give your LaserLOC the strength for today’s higher impulse motors. Fiberglass should be applied with a long cure epoxy for best results. If you have never glassed anything before, here’s your chance! 1/4″ Launch lugs included. Fly away rail guides are another alternative. Full dual deployment ready with electronics bay and recovery included. Go ahead, drag race your fiberglass friends!!!
Strong enough for supersonic flights. Light enough on your wallet and to fly an F motor!!!
