An ultralight helicopter, two-seater side by side, maneuverable and efficient with engine alternatives from 135-140 hp that make it an extremely agile machine. Fed by two 32-liter fuel tanks, which offer 2.5 hours of flight and a low operating cost. The design of its semi-rigid rotor allows sharp maneuvers with very low vibrations even at maximum power.
Sober, modern, smooth, and continuous lines, clean, pure, and compact.
Functional design: Wide doors for comfortable access, ample instrument panel, excellent visibility from inside, reduced frontal area, and an efficient aerodynamic profile
Unique patented design with removable copilot arm and self-adjustable height on both sides for easy access.
Adjustable pedals to the hight of the pilot and Co-pilot.

Ample and configurable with mini Ipad, Garmin Aera 500 series o 796 (Optional)
With two possible options the Cicare 8 assures a fit for any customer:
Rotax 915 IS is a new version
Based on the concept of the successful Rotax 9 series, whose family includes the well-known 912 and 914, the Rotax 915 IS offers more power. Best power-to-weight ratio in its class.
It consumes 30% less than certified helicopters with the same characteristics.
The model equipped with Rotax 915 IS has its unique EMU manufactured by RS flight systems in Germany and developed as per Cicaré's requirements.
Based on the ROTAX 914 engine, with improvements in performance and features, the EPA POWER 917 Ti incorporates an advanced electronic injection system and an aerodynamically developed intake system to optimize performance, to which fiber components have been incorporated carbon, optimizing weight. This version of Cicaré 8 will be certified for commercial use in Germany and will also be extended to countries in Europe, South America, Oceania and Latin America.
The model equipped with Epa Power 917 features the C125 display that has an amazing design and powerful functionality: programmable display, data logger, auxiliary control and LEDs. All in one compact device.
Ease and comfort in flight, the governor facilitates pilot's work, in like all Cicaré helicopters, this auxiliary system becomes essential for a smooth trip. Relax knowing its unique clutch system allows the pilot to have control of the power and request it at any time, without the need to disconnect the system. In autorotation maneuvers, when below 80% of RPM, the governor holds for the pilot to manually return to operating range. Practicing autorotation stays realistic, safe, and easy.
We care, every engine we use considers our environment. All our models consume on average 35% less fuel than comparable aircraft. Doing our part in reducing the carbon footprint on our planet.
When you request power from the engine this set will assure the helicopter’s response. To the pilot’s unawareness, the centrifugal clutch system ensures a smooth and gradual coupling between the engine and the transmission (MRGB). In reaction, the MRGB transfers power to the main blades, while a system of belts, flex plate-plate, and pulleys distribute it between the main and tail rotor with very little erosion of response and power.
Decades of development, thousands of flight hours, strict control of raw materials, production processes, and quality controls translate into unmatched performance, maneuverability, and flight comfort. Additionally, the blades’ inertia, mass distribution, and high lift ratio provide safety and energy to the rotor in autorotation maneuvers.
