1.5 hrsPayload figures are planning figures. Actual available payload on the day is calculated from temperature, elevation, fuel state and working radius, and is confirmed in the load plan before the aircraft launches.
Typical applications
- Spa, pool shell and tank placement into fenced backyards
- Rooftop condensers, split systems and packaged units under 1,000 kg
- Tower and antenna sections to ridgeline and rooftop sites
- Concrete skip and material cycling to sites a pump cannot reach
- Solar tracker frames and panel bundles across large arrays
- Island and remote resort logistics with high cycle counts
Where it wins
- GOLoads under 850 kg where cycle count matters more than single-pick capacity.
- GOConfined suburban and rooftop sites where a smaller rotor disc and exclusion zone is the deciding factor.
- GORepetitive work: 20 to 60 cycles in a flying day is normal.
Where it stops
- LIMAnything above 850 kg at radius moves to the Black Hawk.
- LIMHigh density altitude on hot inland days reduces available payload; we plan to the day, not the brochure.
- LIMSingle-engine operations over built-up areas require approved routes and profiles.
