Installation of the MAGNUM rescue system into gyroplanes and helicopters

The rescue system should be aimed perpendicular to the direction of flight, on the side where the rotor blades rotate backwards.

The main anchor cable is led to the rescue system through the cockpit outer surface to the rotor axis, around which it makes a sling. The cable must be made of steel or KEVLAR with at least a 6G rating. The cable must extend at least 2m past the tip of the rotor blades.

There are two possible solutions for the installation of the recovery system (see below).

Each installation must be reviewed and approved by the aircraft manufacturer!

Gyroplanes

The anchoring cable is attached to the circular cable holder.
The Rescue system is aimed horizontally to the side where the rotor blades are set with a pitch angle in the flight direction and moving in the forward direction.
After the suspension straps slip through, between the rotor blades, the canopy begins to fill.
The Axial thrust bearing prevents the rotating rotor from twisting the connecting cables, parachute, and canopy.

Helicopters

In this installation, the parachute is connected through the parachute chord, connecting cable, and suspension straps to the sling.
The Rescue system is aimed horizontally to the side where the rotor blades are set with a pitch angle in the flight direction and moving in the forward direction.
After the suspension straps slip through, between the rotor blades, the canopy will begin to fill.
