Q: Does the David Clark H10-36 Headset (for helicopters) come with the mic cover? One review says it does, and one says it doesn't.
A: Yes, all David Clark headsets include a foam microphone cover. We also offer spare microphone covers for David Clark headsets.
Q: I am looking to buy some DC headsets but need them to be for helo and stereo. What do you have that will meet those requirements? I see these are the mono equivalent based on the connector P/N.
A: If you require a stereo David Clark for a Helicopter, the two choices for you would be either the David Clark H10-13HXL Helicopter Headset or the David Clark H10-56HXL Headset (for helicopters).
Q: I want to adapt an H10-36 to use on fixed-wing aircraft. Do I need the conversion kit with electret mic or just the dual plug adapter?
A: Because the H10-36 is a civilian headset (high impedance), you would simply need the Helicopter to Standard Fixed Wing Adapter.
Q: Hi, what is the difference between the H10-36 and the 10-13H?
A: The H10-13H is lighter in weight (16.5 oz vs 18.7 oz) and has a slightly lower sound reduction rating (23 db vs 24 db). The H10-13H has a flexible/reversible mic boom and the H10-36 has an articulating/reversible mic boom. The mic on the H10-36 is Dynamic and the H10-13H is Electret.
Q: Do you carry the H10-36 helicopter headset with a switch for duel impedance on it?
A: The H10-36 is not available in a dual impedance model. You may want the H10-66, which does have the single helicopter plug and a switch for high or low impedance. You can find the David Clark H10-66 here.
Q: Besides the 3 dB difference, what are the advantages of the H-10-56 over the H10-36?
A: The only other notable difference is that the 56 has the hinged wire boom with the M-101 microphone and the 36 has the articulating reversible M-1/DC microphone.
Q: Will this headset be compatible with the ICOM model IC-A24 air transceiver. I already have the Icom headset adapter cable mdel OPC-499. Icom recommends we use the David Clark headset.
A: As this is a helicopter headset, you would need to convert the plug for fixed wing to connect it to the OPC-499 headset adapter to work with the A24. You can use the Helicopter to Fixed Wing Adapter for this purpose.
Q: Does the order come with a carrier bag and has it got any passive noise reducing ability?
A: The passive NRR is listed as 24db for this headset. It does not come with a headset bag however we do have the bags available for separate purchase.
Q: Why is there a specific "helicopter" model? What's the difference between the headsets? Is it the plug?
A: Yes, the difference is the plug and the cord. The H10-30 has a straight cord with the dual plug connection for fixed wing, while the H10-36 has the single U174 plug for helicopters and also has a molded coil cord which is preferred in helicopters.
Q: What is the difference between the H10-36 and the H10-30?
A: The David Clark H10-36 is basically the Helicopter model of the David Clark H10-30 headset.
Q: H10-36 Helicopter headset says it comes with a "molded cord". Is that a coil cord?
A: Yes, this headset does come with a molded coil cord assembly.
Q: Could zhis headset be use on Bell212 helicopter?
A: As long as the Bell helicopter uses a standard single U-174/U plug it should work great!
