Small HELICOPTERS with a big role

Even standard items such as the rotor gearbox were found to be totally inadequate, so Visual Air designed and manufactured their own.

Body panels are manufactured from carbon fibre material, the moulds being once again custom made in their own workshop. The final result is a neat, fast, fully controllable machine. With the modified engines, more than six horsepower is available at the rotor blades, quite considerable when considering the size of the machine in relation to a full sized helicopters. Similarly with the electronics, in order to obtain sufficient control channels, completely new systems had to be designed from the ground up. Even the microwave link antennas were custom built to give the required coverage. Microprocessor chips were programmed to take full advantage of the LAN-C protocols offered by camera manufacturers. The result is full control over all of the camera's functions.
