David Clark H20-10 for trike flying

Postby Beefmaster » Mon Jul 25, 2011 8:40 am

Hey chaps,

I havce a David Clarke H20-10 headset which I REALLY dont want to part with, but its turningout to be noisy in the trike. Is there a way (other than mic muffs) that I can quieten it down? Maybe adjusting squelch on the intercom? Not very clued up about the intercom systems yet, but if its possible this way, would like to try it out! :?:

Any advice appreciated, otherwise will have to sell :cry:

Hi
David Clark is a fantastic headset BUT not made for Trike flying. Will not work. Can try Mic muffs but I think the mic is to sensitive.

Thanks Big Mac, have spoken to him, has suggested we try the double muffs. Will give it a bash and see :)

So Beefmaster, have you tried the double muffs?

I also have a DC headset and would like to use it if you are successful

Hi Dobbs
I have noticed on the for sale section that he had it on the market (after he started this post) so I doubt that it worked...

Quite right Air Hog, can't waste any more time trying to make it work! As I'm still training, I need to hear the captain. So the for sale ad is more directed at the 3 axis guys with closed cockpits ;)
