Lightspeed Introduces Rotax-Specific Audio Profile for Delta Zulu Headsets
One of the challenges for pilots who fly multiple aircraft is finding a headset that works well with the powerplant. Lightspeed Aviation , one of the industry leaders in customizable headsets, is now offering the first Rotax-specific audio and automatic noise reduction (ANR) profile for the Lightspeed Delta Zulu model. According to Lightspeed, as part of this collaboration, the Rotax-optimized profile will be available as part of the Rotax Care program for Rotax 912 iS/c, 915 iS/c, and 916 iS engines. The company said in a news release the result is a listening experience purpose-built for Rotax-powered flight—clearer communications and a more refined cockpit environment overall.
