Episode 42: The Heart of HX50 Production

Join us as we delve into the meticulous design process behind the HX50's lighting system, aimed at exceeding legal requirements to enhance safety and the flying experience.

Episode 41: Designing HX50's Lighting

FADEC technology promises unprecedented fuel efficiency and optimal performance, turning aviation dreams into reality. Join us as we unveil the future of flight control, where precision and economy meet in perfect balance.

FADEC - Transforming Flight Control with Digital Precision

At the heart of groundbreaking engine development lies the precision of investment casting. And the foundation of every great casting? A perfect wax pattern. 

Why Our New In-House Wax 3D Printer is a Game-Changer

Helicopter sound is a critical aspect of the flight experience – both for those onboard and the environment below. When we originally designed the HX50's tail rotor, its tip speed matched that of the main rotor. 

However, we identified an opportunity to push the boundaries further and achieve the lowest possible noise level for this aircraft.

We have been working on improving the HX50's tail rotor, specifically optimising its design for reduced noise while maintaining peak performance.

Refining the Tail Rotor for Quieter Flight

At PC1, our first AMA of 2025 set the stage for a new era of in‐house manufacturing. 

Every GT50 and HX50 component is now made under the same roof— from advanced composite laminating and precision aerospace casting to state-of-the-art machining.
