Manufaktura Lotnicza has pioneered a new approach to designing, delivering, and supporting safe, high-performance private light helicopters.
Light helicopter owners generally fall into two categories: private and commercial users. Private owners typically expect cutting-edge technology, luxurious interiors, regular product enhancements, and exceptional customer support—standards that often exceed those of commercial operators.
The ARGO AH is designed to satisfy the needs of the most demanding customers. It features state-of-the-art avionics, a center-mounted cyclic control stick, and a three-blade main rotor that delivers outstanding stability, excellent handling, and an impressive climb rate of up to 15 m/s.
Built using lightweight titanium and advanced composite materials, the ARGO AH is both safe and remarkably quiet in operation.
Powered by modern ULPower or Rotax 916 aircraft engines, the helicopter can reach speeds of up to 180 km/h (112 mph) and operate at altitudes of up to 15,000 feet. Its exceptional maneuverability, precise control response, and rigid rotor system make it the aerial equivalent of a high-performance sports car.
Helicopters family with a rigid three-blade rotor was designed primarily for private owners, completely changing the existing reality of helicopter operating costs.
Calendar depreciation has been virtually eliminated thanks to a long time between overhauls (TBO) of 2,000 hours, with no need for airframe or engine overhaul after 12 years, provided that regular maintenance is carried out.
Manufaktura Lotnicza’s offer, which includes low ongoing maintenance, financing, insurance, and service costs, allows private helicopter owners to keep maintenance costs relatively low and maintain a high residual value of the machine when reselling.
ARGO AH 2.2 is a two seater helicopter 600 kg MTOW which is redefining the route to market for innovative helicopters. Manufaktura Lotnicza has pioneered a reimagined approach to delivering and supporting safe, exciting private light helicopters.
ARGO AH 2.2 has a three-blade nose rotor, which guarantees incredible stability in flight and excellent climb – up to 15 m/s. Thanks to its lightweight composite construction, it is quiet and powerful thanks to its modern Ulpower aircraft engine with 150 hp, it can reach speeds of up to 180 km/h.
It is incredibly maneuverable and rigid – the equivalent of a of a high-performance sports car. Its excellent performance and semi-rigid rotor design allow it to achieve excellent results.
ARGO AH 23 has been designed to harness the potential of the most popular ROTAX aircraft engine manufactured by an Austrian factory with over 100 years of tradition. This remarkable power unit delivers 160 hp from a turbocharged engine and has a TBO of 2,000 hours. The continuous engine power is 141 hp at 5,500 rpm. The maximum power of 160 hp can be used for 5 minutes during takeoff, landing, and operations requiring high power. Fuel consumption can reach 35 l/h of aviation fuel.
ARGO AH 24
is the most powerful model in the AH helicopter range and is powered by a six-cylinder UL Power UL 520 engine with up to 200 hp. It is a true workhorse that can carry heavy loads and fly over the Alps. It has the option of installing external cargo racks and can be equipped with a cargo hook.
We recommend this version to professional customers who can take advantage of the potential of the powerful 6-cylinder engine. The AH 24 can be equipped with an additional fuel tank, which together with the standard tank provides a capacity of 120 liters of RON 98 automotive fuel. Fuel consumption is 35 l/h.
The modern inspiring confidence aviation engines is the most important, it is light and strong, designed as an aircraft engine with all systems doubled, it runs at a low speed of 2800-3500 RPM for long life.
We used drive belts from Robinson, proven and with long life (2000 hour TBC). Another key factor is the engine fairing, airflow tests conducted in the wind tunnel showed high turbulence forming behind helicopters without engine fairings, which reduced speed and caused vibration at higher speeds. The slim engine fairing integrated into the cabin and large trunk is a step forward. The main rotor, blades made of carbon fiber with the center of gravity distributed toward the blade tip, the so-called “high inertia rotor”, making autorotation much easier and safer, the blades have a leading edge made of metal.
Also worth mentioning is the adjustable engine speed controller (governor), which works integrated with the mechanical correlator with possible power adjustment in the range of 65 RPM. Nice interior and modern avionics built into an ergonomic instrument panel. Integrated active safety systems, strobe lights working with the FLARM on-board warning system. New ergonomic bucket seats, high-quality leather and alcantara trim materials and modern GARMIN and KANARDIA Avionics with 3-axis autopilot complete the package.
