Vario Scale and Pod & Boom Trainer Helicopter Systems
The Bell 47 GIII helicopter is a classic, of which there are many types that are still flown today. We decided to use the G III, a 3-seater version.
The engine is located behind the cabin in order to allow a full cockpit interior to be fitted. The complete tail section can be removed (5 bolts) to aid transportation.

Bell 430 Turbine
Bell 430
The 4 bladed Bell 430 is designed for our turbine mechanics Ord.No. 1002/67, alternatively the PHT3-L mechanics can be used from JetCat. The important point is the choice of turbine: the max permissible speed of the four-blade head is 850 rpm, the 4 rotor blades generate such high torque that it is not feasible to use all the available turbine reduction ratios. If you wish to use a higher rpm, the only option is a 2 blade rotor head.

Bell 412 Turbine
Bell 412
This Bell 412 is designed for our turbine mechanics Ord.No. 1002/68, alternatively the PHT3-3 mechanics can be used from JetCat. Because the turbine is in its original postion (rearward) a full scale cockpit can be added. The tail boom is removable to facilitate transport.

Eurocopter AS350 Electric
Ecureuil AS 350 B3
With this kit, special emphasis was placed on the original full size design. The doors can be made functional. There is also an opening loading door on the left side. The cockpit can be scaled to the original helicopter, as it is clear of any mechanics. The tail rotor drive shaft is mounted on top of the tail boom under a removal cover, giving good access for assembly and maintenance.

Schweizer 300C
In 1955, Hughes Tool Company Aircraft Division carried out a market survey which showed that there was a demand for a low-cost, lightweight two-seat helicopter. The division began building the Model 269 in September 1955. In 1964, Hughes introduced the slightly-larger three-seat Model 269B which it marketed as the Hughes
300. In 1969 the improved Hughes 300C (sometimes 269C) was released.

Benzin-Trainer
Our aim was to produce a flying mechanical system with two-stage reduction gearbox, able to exploit the full power of a petrol engine. Excellent flight handling in every situation was also required. The result is the VARIO Petrol Trainer, with a reduction ratio of 9.1 : 1 and rotor diameter of 1780mm.
Kit Ord.No. 8301
Technical Data
Length 1460 mm
Width 200 mm
Height 520 mm

Motor 23 qcm
Weight 7,3 kg
Note: all Vario scale fuselages require mechanics, rotor head, rotor blades, main shaft, pushrods, powerplant, other miscellaneous components and all electronics to be purchased separately in order to complete the model.
These are highly scaled precision molded models and are NOT ARFs. Some fiberglass building experience is required to complete the model
If need be, kindly enquire about building services or pre-built models..
