Bee3 Posted July 18, 2021 Report Share Posted July 18, 2021 Anyone have any issues using a Pilot BluLink with a Helmet? Mine distorts the incoming radio transmissions? Any ideas? Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
76 Driver Posted July 19, 2021 Report Share Posted July 19, 2021 I have a similar problem. On one side of one aircraft. It distorts any aircraft generated warnings. It does mess with the intercom as well, but the radios are fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
500driver Posted July 19, 2021 Report Share Posted July 19, 2021 There’s two types. High and low impedance. I have the high impedance model which has worked great in intermediates, but messes with the audio in some mediums. Likely an impedance issue.

DGP Posted July 24, 2021 Report Share Posted July 24, 2021 I had the same problem with a surplus military gentex helmet...mlitary helmets are not set up for the impedence in civy choppers...had radio tech make up a short pigtail connector for plugging into the helicopter jack...problem fixed...and I had him install a volume control on the helmet. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saifan Pilot Posted August 6, 2021 Report Share Posted August 6, 2021 I hated the BluLink. Good idea, really bad implementation. Ended up getting Bose A20 installed in my MSA Gallet LH250 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tee4 Posted August 7, 2021 Report Share Posted August 7, 2021 I actually prefer my blulink over my old lightspeed zulu. No issues on this end. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What machine do you use it in? Mine works fine it’s just the radio calls are distorted? I can’t get any help from Aircraft Spuce, they just put me onto bluLink who haven't got back in touch with me….

Lightspeed Zulu works 100 times better than Blu-Link. Superb audio quality. BluLink always distorted for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
