SECTION 5 -
PERFORMANCE
The following data were determined by flight testing and demonstrated with average
piloting skills, with engine and aircraft in good condition, as well as clean main rotors
The parameters apply to standard conditions (15°C at sea level and standard pressure)
and a gross weight of 450kg.
Note that a higher airfield elevation, increased temperature and/or low air pressure will
have a negative effect on performance.

GENERAL
WARNING !
Always keep at least 1’’ inHG (MAP) in relation to atmospheric pressure.
NOTE
Satisfactory engine cooling has been demonstrated at outside air temperatures
up to 35°C. If needed for hotter climates, an additional oil radiator can be
installed.
The owner/operator must remain within the normal operating temperatures.
Duration of hover flight is limited by the engine temperature.
NOTE
Information regarding performance indicated in this chapter was obtained under
optimal flight conditions. Performance shown under other conditions may vary
substantially from this.
