Ryan Aerospace, June 18, 2024 - RYAN AEROSPACE (Australia), leaders in mixed reality (MR) and virtual reality (VR) pilot training solutions, will be launching their latest product at FlightSimExpo (FSExpo) in Las Vegas this weekend (22-23 June).

RYAN have developed a “Robinson-styled” HELIMOD and it will be displayed for the very first time at this event on booth 142 at the Rio Hotel. It can simulate the R-22, R-44 and R-66 aircraft.

This device builds on the success of the proven HELIMOD Mark III, utilising many of the parts, sub-assemblies and technologies from this product.

The single seat simulator has the unique Robinson-styled T-Bar cyclic, replica pedals and collective. With the controls all in the correct place and with virtual reality headset donned, it’s hard not to feel like you’re sitting in a Robinson helicopter. It is perfect for ab-initio training, procedural tasks, airspace / air field familiarization, hover training and even some emergency procedures.

Like all RYAN AEROSPACE products, this device is software agnostic and will work with virtually any simulation software platform including X-Plane, Microsoft Flight Simulator and Prepar3D to name a few.

This initial device is solely made as a virtual reality trainer but RYAN AEROSPACE will expand on this over time by adding switch and engine panels, avionics and main instrument panel with a view to getting certified for pilot training. Ultimately, we would like to turn it into a mixed reality device. Mixed reality is a relatively new technology that allows for the trainee to see some real things (such as controls and instrument panels) and some virtual things (such as the outside world) in the headset.

Devices are ready to ship worldwide from Australia or through our distributors in the US, Precision Flight Controls (PFC)
