Jim Amos & his US Coast Guard Dauphin on Display at AirStar's Showroom

I spent 4 years of my life in the coast guard and have had some very interesting experiences.  I served on a coast guard cutter with one aircraft on board, an HH65A coast guard dauphin helicopter which we used for search and rescue. I was a rescue swimmer, plus I worked the enforcement off the coastal waters boarding vessels .   I was always very proud of the HH65 dauphin helicopter with its twin turbos; its one incredible maneuverable helicopter, always being improved and always ready. Since 1990 I have been taking up flying remote control helicopter as a hobby.  About 7 years ago I was thinking of wanting to build a static model of this helicopter.  I came across a company called Airstar International and talked to a gentleman named Josef Joebstl. I was amazed of his expertise in flying helicopters, and his history of being an outstanding helicopter movie cameraman. I saw some of his scales he has built for some of his clients, and I was just amazed of the work being done. So I ask him if he could build be a dauphin helicopter and his response was no problem no doubt we can build it for you. I asked for a lot of detail and when the helicopter was finished I was in awe, so impressed with the magnitude of skills and detail that was done on this helicopter.  Along with 6 thousand rivets all over the helicopter’s body, it was so impressive!  I have many more scale helicopters underway with Airstar International. They build nothing but top quality helicopters and parts.  They build relationship with their customers.  They care about their products and how there customers think.  I will be doing business with them for a very long time.    

Sincerely Jim Amos

Hello Guys!

On behalf of Aerosight Innovations I would like to offer our company as a reference for Airstar products and service .

In October Aerosight purchased a Mongoose helicopter from Airstar. The product was purchased and within the week the new product arrived as specified. This included complete assembly, testing and so on. Aerosight has purchased from many companies both large and small and has NEVER seen a product built this professionally! I was impressed with the service as well. Follow-up phone calls by the Airstar staff were knowledgeable, friendly and quick. We had an issue (No fault of Airstar designers) and Airstar promptly took steps to remedy our situation.

Aerosight has been looking for a builder / supplier for our Autono line of products for UAV use and Aerial photography. We have purchased many other heli's only to not be happy with the support the companies offered or the actual products abilities. With many government calls/ emails funneling into our company, it's nice to know we finally have a reliable source for these aircraft. We plan on referring our clients to your company for the aircraft portion of our Autono elite line of products.

To all potential Airstar and Mongoose buyers..

You will not go wrong to buy this product from this company. If your substantial investment means anything to you, you can rest assured that this company is worth EVERY penny you pay for the product. You will be supported and taken care of every step of the way!


Thanks again,

Dave Skala / President

Helicopter repair and service

 Should you need any repairs or help with your helicopter, Airstar is the place to bring your machine. We have over 25 years of experience in helicopter repair and custom design. Although we specialize in Vario designs, we can service any manufacturer. Airstar has spent the last decade re-designing the outdated and over priced Vario mechanics. Should you own a Vario helicopter, Airstar has a full inventory of  Vario replacement parts to upgrade your existing machine. If you own an Airstar Mongoose or Jet SX we also can repair or service your machines. At Airstar we always have a full supply of replacement parts in stock and can usually repair your machine and have it back to you in 48 hours. If you need it sooner you may set up an appointment and bring your machine in for a “on the spot” repair.

Airstar also has a full paint and powder coat shop, which uses all the latest  PPG paints and powder coating. Custom paint jobs are our specialty  and we only use the finest paints and accessories. We pride ourselves in show quality. If you have a project which needs paint, including powder coating, please call for a price. Again, no job is too small.

 

Aluminum Anodizing

 Should you need any custom color anodizing we can supply this to you as well. We utilize the latest high gloss anodizing finish in any color. All parts are polished before the anodizing process to ensure the finest " mirror like finish".

At Airstar we own several HASS multi axis machines, which we use for building our custom parts.

If you have a project which needs custom machine service we can assist you in your design and machine your parts to exact tolerances.

 

                       

 

Wow!

Got my JetCopter Sx up and running today.

The machine is superb, smooth and POWERFULLLLLL!!!!

The kit arrived about 2 weeks ago, taken some time to get it re-assembled, as it was delivered with boom,

head and blades separate after being test flown by ASI in the USA.

Changed to 2.4 GHz RX & TX, original was on 72 MHz - not allowed here in SA,

and had to get the mechanical set up of the rudder right and then set the heading hold parameters for the gyro again.

A steep learning curve with the JetCat manual and some thought and learning devising all the fuelling and charging peripherals.....

Turbine runs flawlessly, with avg. egt at 560'c and engine rpm range from idle 55000 to max rpm 94000 rpm, main rotor at about 1280 (slow i know but this bird turns fat 810mm blades that whop-whop like the real thing).

At 5 degrees pitch she lurches into the sky and hovers in ground effect just under 1/2 stick. Touch the pitch and and the sky gets sucked up.......

Gyro is rock solid at 50% in avcs heading hold, and cyclic is crisp and fast with all-round digitals and the 2.4GHz xtremelink modules.

2 liters of jet A1 gave me 15+ minutes in hovering with a bit to spare in the hopper tank.

This is the business boss - sound, smell, power ................ still ending test hovers with a dry mouth, light head and racing pulse.....

Thanks Josef, Richard & Eric at ASI - it was worth the wait.

Keep the fan turning & the fuel burning, Rob Mathews.

Josef,

 My brother introduced us just a few days ago and I bought my first helicopter from you on Saturday.  I have never received better service from any one in my life.  Not only did you get a Mongoose ready for me in a very short time, after I totaled one, you stayed up until one in the morning so that you could finish another one for me.   

Your product has surpassed my expectations.  I have been in the RC hobby for over 15 years, doing everything from boats to tanks to helicopters and your product is far superior than anything I have run into.   

I am and will remain an Airstar International customer for life.

   Jim Gillio
