| Description |
Single engine, single seat, ultra light helicopter produced by Cicare SA of Argentina. The machine is derived from the sucessfull CH-6 and CH-7 designs and sold in kit form only. This agile machine is aimed at the sports market (CH-7B) and it is also used for herding cattle (CH-7Bt). There is also a tandem version avaible (CH-7T).
The Cicare CH-7B family competes with the two seater Robinson R22 in the market for cattle herding. The main advantage of the CH-7 is its much lower price level both in purchase and operating costs. Of course, we can't overlook the fact that the R22 is a certified machine while the CH-7 belongs to the class of experimental aircraft.
The CH-7 product line is very succesfull with over 335 units sold.
