LEGACY
 By leveraging several decades of aeronautical experience, SKT’s
team has refined light helicopter technology to unmatched levels
of simplicity, safety and performance.
 State of the art technologies, harmoniously combined in a novel
architecture bring a breakthrough in light helicopter operation
and cheaper operating cost.
 The SKT organization is headquartered in Stabio - Switzerland,
while the test flights of each helicopter take place a short distance
away at Ambri - Airport and in Lomazzo, near Lake Como - Italy.
 Experienced test pilots with thousands of hours of flying, perform
accurate tests on the helicopters, prior to delivery to Customers.

100 % SWISS MADE
 The production facility is located in Stabio - Switzerland. Highly
specialized technicians assemble the helicopters with parts
manufactured by companies, which are all part of the SKT
Helicopter group. Everything except the engines are produced in
house at SKT. Final Assembly is processed under thorough
supervision and controlled system.
ITALIAN POWER
 The MW engine incorporates the latest in modern aviation
technology and is produced based on the electronic management
functions and specific performance needs of the SKT helicopter.
Hours of test led to a very positive result on safety in flight.

State of the Art Technologies
 A group of experts in the field of helicopter aviation engineered a
new light helicopter different from some of the famed but now
out-dated
 Pilots brought their own precise ideas how the new helicopter
should perform: simple and fluid in flying, solid and durable,
with advanced air penetration, but not only a 'race car'. They
wanted a helicopter perfect for recreation, but with
possible applications in reconnaissance, fire control, instruction,
rescue, aerial photography and observation
 The technicians brought forth: the rotor drive belts, improved
collective and cyclic movements and their respective controls.
Engineers desired a fast, powerful aircraft, but with low
power/fuel consumption while using high octane automotive gas,
reducing the need for avgas

State of the Art Technologies, cont.
 For better flying conditions, the rotor system incorporates a three
blade system with specific characteristics. The person responsible
for this delicate area, was a technician/engineer and at the same
time, a true artist who has shaped and made the blades. He has
achieved the best results by giving a ”hook in the sky” blade that
makes this helicopter unique.
 The design engineers created a new shape that could be only be
made composing specific techniques using of composites, carbon
fiber and to simulate their behavior in the wind tunnels.
 All of these factors have created a magical alchemy, using the
latest 3D technologies and machinery. The result is this world
class helicopter that has now been flying since early 2013 and is
called the SKT SKYRIDER.

SKYRIDER EXTERNAL DIMENSIONS AND TECHNICAL IMAGES

Technical description Airframe
 The SKYRIDER is a two-seat, single engine, single
main rotor helicopter. Constructed primarily of
metal and carbon, equipped with skid type landing
gear
 The primary structure of the fuselage is composed
in carbon and the airframe in tubular pressurized
steel. Above the pilot’s pedal bar is a barometric
pressure indicator installed that indicates the
pressure of the airframe tubing. Any drop in
pressure would lead to a leakage in the airframe
tubing due to possible fracture or cracks.
 A cowl door on the right side provides access to the
main rotor gearbox, drive system, engine and oil
 The battery is place between (underneath)
instrument panel

Technical description Rotor System
 The main rotor has three composite
symmetrical blades mounted to the
hub by fully articulated hinges
covered by carbon coverage
 Droop stops for the main rotor
blades provide a teeter hinge
friction restraint which normally
prevents the rotor from teetering
while stopping or starting
 Tail rotor has two composite blade
MAIN ROTOR MAST AND
SWASHPLATE

Technical description Drive System
 A gears group is bolted directly to the engine output shaft.
These gears transmit power to the gearbox of main and tail
rotor. The main gearbox contains a single-stage spiral-bevel
gear set which is splash lubricated. The gears function as
freewheel when engine shutdown during flight
 The long tail rotor drive shaft has one hanger bearing and
the Tail cone is a monolithic carbon tube
 The tail gearbox contains a splash-lubricated spiral-bevel
gear set

Technical description Power Plant
 MW aero power B25R four cylinders, horizontally opposed, water
cooled, ignition valve with a wet sump oil system powers the
helicopter. Engine has two alternator, first mounted between
transmission gear and gearbox, second installed directly onto the
engine.
 Aero Power engines are an extraordinary expression of Italian
style and technology. The engines are impressive, not only for the
high technology content but also for beauty, for the accuracy of
the details and for sleek design, result of a complete project.

Technical description Power Plant

Technical description Cooling System
 Two cooling fans are mounted over the airframe for cooling
the radiator, behind this there is an electrical pump for water
supply
ENGINE DRIVEN FAN FOR
WATER COOLING

Technical description Flight Controls
 Dual controls are standard equipment and all primary control are
actuated through cables. Dual cyclic and collective are removable,
whereas pedals remain fixed
 The collective stick is conventional with a twist grip throttle
control
 Flight controls have no friction with the exception of collective,
which includes a magnetic break that allows moving the lever only
by clicking the button disposed under the collective. When the
pilot releases the button, the collective maintain in the last
position.

Technical description Governor
 The governor maintains engine RPM by sensing changes and
applying corrective throttle inputs which may be easily overridden
by the pilot
 The governor is designed to assist in controlling RPM under
normal condition. I will not prevent over or under-speed
conditions generated by aggressive flight manoeuvres.
 When operating at high density altitudes, governor response rate
may be too slow to prevent over speed during gusts, pull-ups, or
when lowering collective

Technical description Fuel System
 The fuel system is configured with two electrical pumps
connected to the main fuel tank. The dual pump configuration
was designed for safety purposed in case of pump failure.
 The fuel gages are electrically operated by float-type
transmitters in the tank.
When the gages read E, the tanks are empty

Technical description Electrical System
 A 12 volt electrical system consists of two alternator, voltage
controller, battery relay a capacitor and two batteries
 First alternator (engine alternator) and load battery 1 dispense
electrical requirement to engine, EFIS and light
 Second alternator (located between main gearbox and
transmission gear) dispense electrical requirement to fuel
pumps, water pumps, pre-starter and radiator fan
 If alternator discharges, terminate flight as soon as practical.

Technical description Lighting System
 An anti-collision strobe light is installed on the radiator fan.
Night lights include navigation lights on each side of the cabin
and on the tail. Twin landing lights are installed in the nose at
different vertical angles to increase the pilot’s field of vision.
Technical description Static System
 The Pitot-static system supplies air pressure to operate the
airspeed indicator, altimeter and vertical speed indicator. The
Pitot tube is located on the front edge of the helicopter. The
static source is located in the control panel.
