看到底部 · 有惊喜

The Cabri G2 is a two-seat light helicopter with a three-bladed fully articulated main rotor and a Fenestron-type tail rotor. It has a skid landing gear and side-by-side seating for a pilot and passenger. Powered by a 180 hp (134 kW) Lycoming O-360 piston engine derated to 145 hp (108 kW), it first flew in March 2005. Its development was preceded by a prototype Cabri G2-01, which flew for the first time in April 1992.

In 2006 the Cabri G2 set three world records in the sub-500 kg helicopter class. Altitude without a payload 6,658 m (21,844 ft); Time to climb to a height of 3000 m (9840 ft) in 6 min 42 secs, and Time to climb to a height of 6000 m (19680 ft) in 22 min 6 sec. 

It was awarded an EASA Type Certificate in December 2007. The first production aircraft was delivered at the end of 2008 to Ixair (France). Two helicopters have been ordered by Europter for basic training, the first of which was delivered in December 2009. The company has also signed a deal with Eurocopterto develop an unmanned varnant.

Rotor Head

The Cabri G2’s three-blade main rotor system is a masterpiece of innovative design.

It is fully articulated, maintenance free and incredibly strong giving a unique combination of maneuverability and stability.

This helicopter can be flown safely in a wide flight envelope including strong winds and turbulence until now reserved for the best turbine helicopters. This design incorporating elastomeric bearing and dampening technology doesn’t suffer from low G, unlike two-blade semi rigid systems.

Blades

The Cabri G2 blades have very high inertia and have been designed and tested for no life limit.

Helicopters Guimbal have taken advantage of the latest turbine blade technology and the composite blades feature a level of damage tolerance never before achieved.

Fenestron Tail

Bruno Guimbal was extensively involved with tail rotor design during his time with Eurocopter. Bruno and Eurocopter jointly hold several Fenestron tail rotor patents and this allows the Cabri G2 to utilse this advanced technology.

The Fenestron tail rotor allows the Cabri G2 to operate in confined spaces and in winds that would prohibit operation of other light helicopters.

The excellent maneuverability, smooth handling and low noise level characteristics of the Fenestron tail rotor and above all safety level it provides are majoradvances in this class of helicopter.

Other advantages include reduced FOD damage potential and the elimination of tail rotor vortex.

Engine

TheCabri G2 utilises the trusted Lycoming O360 engine however its installationincorporates several important innovations:

• The engine is oriented correctly and installed at a convenient     height to give easy access to routine maintenance items such as the oil     filter. This saves costs on every maintenance event

• A smart digital engine governor controls the engine

• Protection against over-speed on start

• Solid-state, maintenance free electronic ignition gives greater     reliability and smoother starting

• Engine mounts incorporate advanced vibration isolation

• The exhaust is discharged above the helicopter providing the     quietest operation in its class and allowing it to land in long grass     without the risk of fire

Composite Fuselage

The all-composite fuselage of the Cabri G2 is exceptionally light and strong. It is maintenance free and extremely resistant to accidental damage.

The pre-pregnated autoclave composite construction allows a level of precision in the fuselage manufacture that is unattainable with aluminum.

Avionics

Theheart of Cabri G2’s avionics suite is the EPM, a state of the art glass cockpitmonitor, which displays helicopter and engine information in a form that iseasy and intuitive to understand.

Amongstother functions the EPM monitors:

• Current power setting and limitation.

• Automatic carburetor heat

• Chip detectors

• Rotor and engine RPM

• Fuel level and 'time to stop’

• Flight time, Hobbs time, flight log and sensor self-test     history.

Luggage

The Cabri G2 has a 200-litre luggage compartment!

The compartment can be loaded externally but can also be accessed from inside the cabin. It can accommodate two airline cabin sized suitcases and more, including the helicopter handling wheels.

There is additional storage for soft items under the seats. If necessary, the passenger seat can be removed entirely.

Comfortand ergonomics

Thecabin is roomy and comfortable with its leather seats and outstandingergonomics. The single piece formed aviation grade Plexiglass windshieldprovides great visibility and there is ample room for the pilot to operatewhile wearing a helmet. All controls have been designed to reduce pilotworkload.

TheCabri G2 features the following innovations with the pilot in mind:

• Tool less removal and installation of dual controls

• Four-way trim system with controls for both pilots

• Digital turbine-like engine governor

• Automatic carburetor heat

• Powerful rotor brake

Andto increase pilot and passenger comfort:

• Two power sockets

• Storage for incidentals

• Remotely lockable doors

• Cockpit heating and defog

• Pneumatic springs on cabin doors and engine cowling

• Adjustable pedals
