Custom R22 Helicopter Transporter System Trailer
Custom trailer by Featherlite
The transporter is basically a tarp-covered wagon with a moveable scissors lift.
10-foot flatbed and tilting 5th-wheel hitch on long frame rails
160 gallons 80 each side, air dryer and chuck, grate steps
Verduyn tarp with quadruple uplift bows for no blade contact
3 kW Honda generator and batteries to operate scissors lift independently of truck
Landing platform large enough for the average pilot, with tie downs.
After opening the rear doors and loosening two tensioning brackets, the tarp slides forward and compresses into the fifth-wheel area.
Controller for landing platform directs up, down, forward and reverse movement from right side, with full visibility
Rack and pinion transport drive for scissors lift, moves platform fore and aft along tracks.
Landing pad wings open, and rest on solid trailer base.
Manual override, so if electricity fails we can still move the landing platform.
Durable rubber material on landing platform (also used in horse trailers).
Two compartments designed to hold large helicopter fuel bladders
Two large tie-down straps securing the platform to the trailer
Smaller straps hold the helicopter to platform
Robinson tuna-boat blade supports, front and rear protect droop stops
The system provides a very soft and secure ride for the R22.
