We are so stoked to share the first photos of the very first Redtail RT 110 carbon fiber shell. It's just as we envisioned and we couldn't be happier with how it turned out.
The RT 110 shell is a sleek beast at 110" x 60" x 10" and weighing just 116.5lbs. So much space at such little weight! By constructing the shell (and walls - coming soon) out of extremely strong yet incredibly lightweight carbon fiber, we're able to add tons of amenities like lithium batteries, polycarbonate windows, integrated solar panels, diesel heater, large fan, lighting, and plush mattress while keeping the total weight in check.
We're working on the walls and windows next. Stay tuned and subscribe to our newsletter for more updates.
Have you ever camped in a rooftop tent (or any tent) in the rain, snow or freezing cold? 🙋♀️ If you have, you probably found yourself in the dark with the opaque fabric windows zipped closed, damp, chilly and hunkered down until you could ventilate and dry out again. Or maybe you just packed up and went home.
Alternatively, have you ever camped in an rtt/tent and heard a scary noise at night? Maybe the growl of an unknown beast or the scratching of a yeti against the soft canvas? Or maybe your travels ran late and you had to resort to a Walmart parking lot for the night, and feel a bit unsettled with strangers lurking around. If so, you probably found yourself in the dark again, with the opaque canvas windows shut tight which means now you can't see whatever might be making that noise - tree branch or Sasquatch?
