The Nova flight helmet is the newest in our line of flight helmets. The Nova features side vents for cooling and an integrated visor. Communication options include standard passive, ANR upgrade and/or CEP ear buds. The ANR option includes helmet-mounted rechargeable battery with 30 hours of battery life.
Constructed of vacuum molded carbon fiber and fiberglass, this lite weight helmet packs a punch when it comes to completing the mission. The Nova flight helmet is suitable for both fixed-wing and rotor-wing aircraft.
The shell features a quick release chin strap buckle and adjustable strap, nape strap, fastened carbon-fiber adjustable ear cups for sound attenuation, and gel ear seals for added comfort. A Velcro-fastened adjustable liner completes the fitting.
The total weight of the helmet is 2.6 pounds.
Not recommended for those who wear glasses. If you wear glasses we recommend the Aries flight helmet.

- ANR Upgrade
- Boom Side
- Air Vent
- Tinted or clear visor - included

Communication package:
The Nova comes standard with the communication package that includes a choice of two-plug general aviation panel cord or single-plug helicopter cord with an emergency disconnect at the helmet via a Nexus U-92 A/U plug. The microphone, which can be mounted on either the right or left side, is an electret flex boom with foam wind muff. Hearing options include the standard 300 ohm ear cup mounted speakers and the optional military grade ear buds (CEP). Sound attenuation is noticeably better using the ear bud option, so this is something to consider before ordering.
Impact Rated Liner Option:
The impact rated liner exceeds ACH blunt impact requirements (AR/PD 10-02). The liners are adjustable and feature Zorbium foam technology which offers leading-edge impact protection without adversely affecting weight or heat dissipation and include integrated air channels to keep you cool. These liners can be hand washed with mild soap.
The helmets come painted in a single color; however, you can order custom designs for an additional charge. Call us with any questions or to discuss custom paint options - (951) 943-1166.
