THE FIXED-WING ADVANTAGE

The Aero Commander 500B loiters at speeds equal to or lower than an AS350 loiter speed without ever needing to hover.

STABILITY & FORWARD FLIGHT

Our fixed-wing is inherently stable throughout its operating speed range, while helicopters are most stable between 69 and 113 mph.

SAFETY RISK

Hovering is the most dangerous phase of flight. Engine failure is highest in hover and leaves very few options for recovery.

HOVER COST

The aircraft’s high wing and large tail surfaces provide a naturally stable camera platform, making it easier to maintain smooth, steady shots. At the same time, its predictable handling in wind and gusty conditions is especially valuable around stadiums and major events.
