Lynx headsets, Lynx helmets, Lynx aircraft and aviation intercom equipment for ultralight and light aircraft.

The Lynx Micro System is specially designed to provide excellent performance in open-cockpit ultralight/microlight-type aircraft such as trikes, powered-parachutes, and open-cockpit fixed-wing planes. The Lynx Micro System is designed and manufactured in England, using the latest electronic technology to produce the most advanced aircraft intercom equipment available. The system is modular in design and can be configured to meet any specific requirement by selecting the appropriate component parts.

Lynx Micro System The Lynx "Micro System" consists of headsets which contain the intercom circuitry and their own rechargeable batteries. Two headsets can be coupled together for excellent intercom function, with each headset having its own volume control. The headsets can be used with or without the Lynx helmets. And, the headsets can be used with radio-interface units to allow for radio as well as intercom communication. The components of the Lynx Micro System are listed and priced below.

The headset is noise-attenuating and provides hearing protection in noise levels up to 110db(A). Each headset contains a specially developed electret noise-canceling microphone, an electronic speed processor and a rechargeable battery located in the headband. Connecting two or more headsets together forms an intercom providing communication for a minimum of 40 hours. Micro System headsets can be connected to a radio via a range of interface units and are fully compatible with all available radio transceivers. Each headset battery can be recharged up to one thousand times, and does not suffer from Memory effect.
