Tracking Light Systems
CHR, manufacturers of the multi award winning Safari Helicopter Kit, are continually working on ways to better the flying ability of not only the Safari, but other kit built and certified helicopters. One of their most recent innovations is a set of tracking lights that will fit most two bladed and three bladed helicopter systems. The tracking lights will show what is happening with the main rotor blades, relative to each other, in both hover and forward flight, for tracking blade variances. Adjustments to blade tracking becomes a one person operation, with a much lower cost than the normal two person activity with strobe lights.
