Excellent & affordable

  • By Martin from Santa Monica CA on Friday, August 16, 2013
  • Pros: Affordable, Comfortable, Loud&Clear, the PTT!
  • Cons: none found yet
  • Review: I've had an old ASA bottom-of-the-line headset for 7+ years, when it finally gave up I bought this headset. I just flew 6.9h in 1 day (first fight with the new headset), and I love it!
    - Very comfortable (with the gel and pads)
    - Loud&Clear
    - I LOVE the PTT on the cup, it's just so much more practical when you are managing the flight, going through charts and plates, and not necessarily with your hand on the yoke.

Fits smaller heads great.

  • By Ryan from Okemos MI USA on Tuesday, June 3, 2014
  • Pros: Comfortable, good fit.
  • Cons:
  • Review: So far this product has been great. I bought this headset and also a Rugged headset and they have both been excellent. However, this headset is much easier to adjust if you plan on having different people wear it. It's also good for smaller heads. The Rugged would not fit my girlfriend but this headset actually sizes down far enough for a good comfortable fit. I've actually not tested the PTT feature yet, but that is a nice bonus.

Very satisfied

  • By Wyatt from Longview TX USA on Monday, August 10, 2020
  • Pros: Clear and comfortable
  • Cons: Case is a little cheesy
  • Review: I’ve used the headset about 2 months now and have no complaints. Very comfortable and not too heavy. Clear and the mic boom works well. If you are not wanting to spend the extra money for noise canceling these will fit the bill.

It broke

  • By Rhodi from Magnolia TX USA on Tuesday, July 8, 2014
  • Review: Not even a month.

    Perfectly decent for a few weeks. Hubster bought a rock-bottom El Cheapo McCheap-Cheap, but I figured I'd spend just a shave more for an upgraded mic because no one can ever hear me. After a few flights, truth be told, I realized I couldn't tell any diff between his mic and mine. Either seemed fine in both sound and mic quality. But after a few weeks mine died. First the boom mic lost tension and wouldn't hold position. Then next day, the mic itself stopped working. Ironic that I paid a wee bit extra for better mic.

    Also, I babied my headset, whereas he treated his with no discernable respect. His is a second-hand Rugged.

    We'd both figured we'd buy cheap headsets as students, but that the cheapies would just act as spares later when we upgraded to better models. Av headsts are pricey Flight lessons are expensive enough! We don't have an extra grand apiece to spend on perfect headsets.

    I'll have to send this head set back and start over.
