morgy Posted March 5, 2009 Share Posted March 5, 2009 Does anyone know anything about Icaro helmets?? I have an old full face Icaro 2000 i used to use hangliding i now use it for paragliding but now i am looking for a helmet when i get my motor. I like the TX and the scarab but i can seem to find a dealer. Does anyone know if these are any good?? do the headsets work ok??? can you retro fit a different set of head sets?? thanks in advance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
t_andrews Posted March 5, 2009 Share Posted March 5, 2009 Is it one of these? http://www.icaro2000.com/Products/Helmets/Sito-4fight/default.htm If so, sweet looking Aero helmet. For what it's worth, I just use the foam earplugs with my charly insider Free flight helmet since I had it wired for my Vx5r already. Motocomm wiring kit from flytec.com - maybe Simon's shop too? With foam earplugs and the volume up a bit louder it's fine although outside noise isn't likely as quiet as a high dollar/pound/euro setup, it serves nicely enough I see no need to swap out anytime soon as noise isn't annoying even for 3+ hours cruising. Maybe I'd be spoiled if I tried a purpose built helmet... Do you really need another helmet? Or just want a separate kit? I like your icaro better than my insider only because I expect to be going 10k faster this season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
morgy Posted March 6, 2009 Author Share Posted March 6, 2009 Hi T-andrews No i was looking at the TZ and the scarab they are designed for paramotoring you can have just the hemet on its own or you can buy it with comms and a visor.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mgrant Posted March 6, 2009 Share Posted March 6, 2009 My mate bought an Icaro helmet with radio headphones/ear defenders. It looks good and he is happy with it. He ordered it direct from Icaro. http://www.icaro2000.com/Products/Helmets/All-ul.htm I think his is a Scarab or a Skyrider. Mark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
