Starlink for Rotorcraft
Always Connected. Airborne.
Mission-ready broadband for live video, data, and communications. Engineered for rotorcraft. Installed, validated, and supported by Helicopters Inc.
The Hardware
HeliIncLink. Engineered in-house, installed once.
Not a consumer kit strapped to an airframe.
A purpose-built Starlink integration designed specifically for rotorcraft. Every component is engineered, mounted, and wired for the rotor environment — then validated in flight.
- Aviation-grade mount and airframe-specific wiring harness
- Engineered for vibration, heat, attenuation, and structural loads
- Integrated power, data, and video routing
- Ready for ENG, Public Safety, Utility, or Passenger workflows
Configurations
One system. Multiple mission profiles.
A single airborne Starlink platform, dialed in to the workflow of each operation — the mission you're running, then the next one, and the one after that.
ENG + Live
