Welcome to "Protor" Helicopter Home!
We are proud to introduce new 2-seat helicopter - first of a
kind designed, built and airborn in Russia.
"Protor" was designed&built in Russia under the
best traditions of Russian aviation design which basically means high R&D
preparations and solid state parts manufacturing with no weak or doubtful places
to find. It is well-known that Russian aviation design school would better made
the aircraft twice heavier than even a little doubtful in design strength.
Though no obvious innovations can be found in "Protor"
at a glance, this helicopter has many serious preferences which we will talk
about some later - after first hundreds of flight experience are accumulated.
"Protor" is designed to be friendly for low-time
pilots both in study, flight and maintenance.
This helicopter is built according to widely different Russian
climate conditions so it can be operated with comfort in wide range of OAT,
humidity and wind.
"Protor" is powered with revolutionary rotary engine
designed by VAZ specially for general aviation use. This engine burns autogaz so
there is no further problem to find avgaz anywhere.
"Protor" has wide 124 cm cockpit, excellent
aerodynamic fuselage and really stable and reliable controls.
Dual controls are standard.
