"We installed the DCS1100 in our AS350B3e. Installation went smoothly, no hiccups. We liked the kit, very well built, good fitment, very complete and the instructions and drawings are clear and straightforward. Two of us got the install done in an 8 hour shift excluding paperwork (the aircraft was already opened up for a check which helped). I followed the instructions and had no problems with the USB/serial cable and the software (PuTTy, graphing and firmware update). The FLI APP worked flawlessly during the flight test and the pilots loved the FLI repeater, works like a charm. We have also just done the SB that bumps NR to 400 rpm when there’s a load on the hook on that machine so between the 2 upgrades it makes for a good aerial work machine to fly."

  The DCS1100 is FAA, TCCA and EASA STC approved as a data collection system that gathers real-time power train parameters from the VEMD crosstalk channels and records it at 1Hz resolution for post flight analysis. The DCS1100 transmits the data in real-time via Bluetooth at 20 times per second. Robust operation of the App is assured with built-in integrity monitoring of VEMD and transmitted data. If anything is compromised the App provides an instant pop-up warning message. While the App is not an STC approved component of the DCS1100, it is a powerful reference tool that makes use of the many capabilities of the DCS1100 to assist pilots in heavy external load operations by both reducing the potential for exceeding limits and reducing fatigue.

  Recorded data from the DCS1100 is easily offloaded via thumb drive or in real time when connected to a 3rd party satellite or cellular tracking system. This data is then viewed with the supplied graphing and trending software to meet FAA FOQA and EASA AMC2 CAT.POL.H.305(b) system requirements.

  Supplied PC interface software allows you to program the many features of the DCS1100.
