- Every 2200 hours the main and tail rotor gearboxes along with the engine need to get overhauled. I give you a brief overview of what that process looks like.

Very informative Mischa. Great job! Just flew my second hour on the Cabri December 5 2019:)
That's awesome nice work.
truly amazing work !!!!
nice clock
Once again the magic sauce that makes it fly is money lol😁😁💯
I've never seen a Hipster Maintenance crew.
and vegan
Curious about what the approximate cost is?
If I did that I'd have fifteen bolts and washers left over after re-assembly. Sorry guys, we need to start again. Bit of a bugger I know....
Very cool, thanks for sharing! Love the clock on the wall. 8-)
hmmm, what when did i miss something, what became of c-gelp ? why is it's tail up on the wall, I see there is a orange and little green goblin's now
Awesome! I really enjoyed this video! 👍
Fantastic video guys. Love the professionalism and team work.
What a great life 👍
Was the engine replaced or taken out for service, if replaced does the old one go back to manufacturer lots of things not explained in full
pro tip : you can watch series on Flixzone. Been using it for watching a lot of movies lately.
@Jayson Ares yea, I have been watching on flixzone} for years myself =)
Love these type of video's almost as much as the mountain and river flying videos. Keep them comming when you can.
Yes thanks it was amazing to see this appriciate !
Yes Merry Christmas to you all !
It seems utterly astonishing that the replacement of an extremely unsophisticated and elderly engine and the main and tail gearboxes of a light, two place utility helicopter should cost around $140,000!
Welcome to aviation. Most of 2200 hours accumulated are revenue hrs at $540/hr, so you do the math. Maintenance is a crucial component of a well operated company and its just a cost of doing business.
Yes and I did edit my above statement to take into account the core return on the gearboxes so it's more like $100K after the core returns.
@@mirzakamenjas6089 I'm confused. From what I've seen most helicopter pilot training costs between $150 and $250 an hour. Where does the $540/hr come from?
That's helicopter parts always expensive have to be made light weight but strong at the same time all materials have to be given a air worthy certificate which costs to via the helicopter manufacturers,👍
you have to replace the engine? seems like a crappy engine if that has to happen every year or so
How does it feel on the first flight after you've done all that work?!
Ryan Heath it felt perfect. No change.
very intresting
Wonderful machine but awful color 😀
What you guys doing with the old part's?
I saw a schweizer 300 are you guys going to use them again?
How much does is cost after 2200 hours to replace
It looks like you could sell and buy a new one or lease one cheaper
was it a Schweitzer in the background ?
mischa are you a certified airctsft mechanic
He hates on the Robinson quite often
Wow!!!
As an example that's 6 hours per day for 365 days
2 weeks and what $200 grand :-)
Originally I posted that the overhaul cost around $140K Candian dollars. However something I wasn't thinking about when I posted it is that you get a core return on the two gearboxes. So this brings the overhaul down nearly $40K. So the upfront cost would be around $140K but when it all comes out in the wash it's more like $100K CAD. Hope that helps clarify.
@@PilotYellow Thanks for sharing the cost. I had the same question. I assume that there are other time limited components that have to be addressed in the future, so the 140K is not a direct comparison to the Robinson rebuild, but good point about limited downtime and time limited components vs. calendar limited components. I really appreciate your videos and sharing what you do.
@@jimrogers907 See my edited cost above, after a core rebate it would be more like $100K CAD.
« Just a little video » as usual a wonderful generous work of love you have given us again. Thanks Mika!
Finished my PPLH training on CabriG2 today in Tallard France. Signed up for flight test in early January.
Hope hope!!
Good Luck!
I hope your New Year gets off to a (Qualified PPL-H) Flying Start!
That music really got me.
That music loop.😒
I'm really amazed how everyone looks so young and all so careful with what they do!
Aircraft parts aren't cheap. Don't rush the work and be very methodical.
Where is located?
I love your video
cost?
was this project overseen by a certified mechanic? You didn't say much on who gives the okay to perform the work and make it FAA offical.
Great info. Merry Christmas to you all
Thanks, Merry Christmas to you too.
First and foremost great content,PERSONALLY I barely can fly a toy helicopter. HATS OFF TO YOU AND YOUR COMPANIONS..THANKS FOR THE VIDS OVIEDO FL..
I must say that your statement of a Robinson overhaul taking up to 6 months is debatable. Yes a Robinson in-house factory overhaul can take up to 6 months depending on their workload. However it is important to note that an RHC factory OH is a complete tear down of the entire helicopter much like a classic car restoration. Before the COVID-19 crisis Robinson was working on lessening the in-house OH lead times and actually hitting the 5 month mark.
An R44 Raven II overhaul performed in the field by an authorized service center, which BC Heli is quite familiar with, averages around 240 man hours. These estimated hours can fluctuate depending on the teams experience of the unit in question. The point is that every helicopter has it’s challenges but eventually the mechanics gain the experience and knowledge to comply with the scheduled maintenance requirements well within the estimated timeframe in a safe and timely manner.
So the statement of a G2 overhaul taking 4 days is a long shot but in the hands of a well experienced team may be possible. Well lets give them a buffer of a few more days, just in case. Much props to the BC Team for the video. Keep up the good work and always remember to double & triple check your work!
Heyyyy
A&P w/IA here. If you think it will take X number of hours, then multiply by 5 to get in the ballpark. Unexpected parts needed can really exagerate that. Enjoyed the video!
That is scary. I'd be too worried about forgetting to screw up that one bolt that might hold something important on....Hey Guys, not sure how to tell you this but you know what I forgot to do ? I see, so Mischa has just taken it out ? What sort of insurance cover do we have ?
cool vid but the guitar riff was starting to make me nutty...kinda need to have more changes and new sounds as the vid moves along.
no harm , but all this high five ing makes it look like they have never done the job before , id be starting to worry about 4:20 ,,,
so did you swap out the engine and boxes , or take them apart and swap out bearings etc , please excuse my ignorance on such things , it looks like it was expensive either way.
This is a little off topic but what's your thoughts on Rotorway 162F are they worth repairing?
For some reason I can't locate one gentleman's question as to the full operations of the tail rotor! I believe he was inquiring concerning the d-3 Hinge(Delta 3 Hinge} Are you still here?
I really wish the video had talked more about what was being checked.
7:32 reminded of something: does this heli has a "Jesus Nut"? (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jesus_nut)
French made helicopter with a Lycoming 0-360-J2A power plant.
Awesome! Thanks for sharing, really interesting video. Well done!
Congratulations on the technical knowledge in a short time and all good, you are really ahead with the times and the technical notions and logistical organization I always follow you, a greeting from Italy and the Dolomites ...
The overhaul schedule and process of the G2 puts it ahead of every other helicopter out there.
How much u got to spent on overhaul of Cabri G2 ...?
You can do your own maintenance? Or do you have to be certified ?
Love to see where there was wear in any of the fittings at these hours , not much holding the tail boom on 6 1/4 inch bolts , gee ,,,
Very cool. Always wanted to see something like that Thanks again.
Do you have to be a certified mechanic to work on your helicopter?
@Pilot Yellow how does the overhaul cost compare to a R44 Raven or Cadet?
How much does it cost for all the replacement?
Is the 300CBI up and running too?
why is the green position light on the left side?
4:29 how many helicopters can you fit in there?
I didn't know Thor was in the team...
What are the holes on the fenestron blades for?
How many months to get to 2200hrs?
Wait...did you guys just swapped engines?? Like replace with a new engine??? Or just change a few parts from the current engine?? How often do you need to do this???
Title says 2200 hours...complete engine and trans swap
Great bird, ugly color.
great video lads , keep up the good work.
Love the clock in hangar
Excellent video Brother
Love all the video's :) Wondering when you do another 2200 hr overall, if an engine QEC would reduce the 15 day turn significantly?
Dwayne De Abreu it would reduce it by about 4 days yes.
Very clean helicopter.
must be a reflection
Great job fellas!
Starting at 2:42 the song changes. What song is that? John Mayer or SRV? Love your videos. Great content.

Sar very nice I like
how much did it cost
Love the clock!
see below
Cool
C-GELP, C-GUET, C-GUTE, all cute!
ew lalal!! heli porn!
Do you not need to be a resisted engineer in Canada
You can do basic tasks like cleaning and lending a hand to the engineer if it's overseen by the engineer. Lot's of ground crew pilots help out the engineers in the shop with basic tasks like that.
Hummm in America you need a Manufactures service manual if your working on the aircraft...didn't see that, the engine mounts require NDI, as parts removed they need to be Green, or yellow tagged with PN/Data on the tag, every part removed must be tagged. I sure hope your not a Commercial Operator ... I was always told Canada had a excellent Maintenance system ... seems to have detonated over the years.
Early on in the video, as the Engineer was working on the Fenestron, the Manufacturer's Service Manual was on his immediate workbench, opened at the exact page for the task in hand.
Experienced, Professional Engineers carried out the work to the specifications and standards required by the Aircraft Manufacturer and the Canadian Regulatory Authority.
This is hardly Rocket Surgery!
@@felixcat9318 Agreed...what wasn't shown on the video is the paper work that must be done...log entries per manufacturers specifications, replacement part numbers, serial numbers, tolerance measurements etc. all dated, counter signed and double checked. Then a test evaluation flight and more post flight checks...Then certificate of airworthiness is issued. There's a heap more too numerous to go into here.
👍 😁 🍻
How are you guys liking the Cabri? What is your real world direct operating costs? Thx.
Ictpilot Ictpilot we like them. You are looking at about $130/hr DOC. That’s in US dollars.
@@PilotYellow how much does it cost to hour if you are a student pilot?
geddon436 it’s $550 per hour.
@@PilotYellow Thank you. Got my helo add on in the R22. Would love to get current and try a Cabri!
@@PilotYellow Wow. That is expensive.
Cool. I missed these videos. Love the clock. Creative. I keep hearing that the 2200 is half as much for a cabri then a Robinson...is it true? What’s the actual cost if you don’t mind since you have both? I’m almost caught up on three years worth of videos. And I never miss a new one.
The Big Bill Theory the clock is sweet. But that 3 bladed ceiling fan in the hanger was also impressive.
unclegeek yup. But isn’t that gute’s main rotor hanging from a pulley?
The Big Bill Theory Man I hope that ceiling fan is rated 😀
We don't have a R22 in house to compare it to but the cost is close to half. This cost about $140,000CAD all together for the overhaul.
Pilot Yellow thank you. I appreciate the response. I guess I figured the r 44 and 22 might be kind of close. I love this channel. It’s one of the first channels I started watching after I add the decision to get my license. And the only one I make sure to watch ever episode of. My favorites are the instructional. The check ride video was helpful...etc. what you do for you students. Is a great thing and you should all be proud.
Best outfitted aircraft mechanics ever been seen,
I was surprised you guys replace the Main transmission
I saw a still shot of someone standing on the top of a small ladder and making a maximum reach. Falls from ladders are the #1 workplace accident. Never stand on the top of a ladder. Get a taller ladder.
What is an overhaul? I’m only 16
Skyforce 213 when a certain part of the aircraft reaches certain hours. In this case 2200 hours it needs to either be replaced or overhauled. In this case the engine and main and tail rotor gearboxes need to be overhauled.
im a real mechanic. real mechanics do not wear rubber gloves or any gloves for that matter. only sissies and girly men with man buns wear gloves.
