About this app

It is vital to comply with weight and balance limits established for helicopters. Operating above the maximum weight limitation compromises the structural integrity of the helicopter and adversely affects performance. Balance, both laterally and longitudinally, is also critical because on some fully loaded helicopters, center of gravity deviations as small as three inches can dramatically change a helicopter's handling characteristics. Taking off in a helicopter that is not within the weight and balance limitations is extremely unsafe.

Use this app as an easy tool to verify your own calculations. You can quickly add and remove optional items such as Doors or Dual-Controls. It is also a handy tool to explain the calculations to students.

Currently supported:

• R22 Beta II, with Aux Tank installed
• R44 Raven

Please note, this app will infrequently display ads, to support the ongoing development. Thanks!!

Does not offer the 44 raven 2 as an option for calculations, otherwise it would have been 5 stars.

Could not change the preset moment. So it wouldn't be the correct CG on the R22 I fly.

Hi, thanks for reaching out. Can't you adjust the values you need by updating Long/Lat Arm? Please reach out via dev@hiz.ch, happy to discuss!
