Yes he does have the best sound quality going but that is specifically for vlogging. The PM100 is an aviation headset that does significantly more, vlogging is a plus for me. When you say pulsing noise, I'm not sur what you mean?
British cottage industries, fantastic to see them thriving. Great video Giles not sure Bose would be that efficient or give that service even though they charge £1k for a headset that has half the features.
Hi Mike, they have helped and supported me, it was the least I can do to show the behind the scenes staff at work. There were more honest, but not all wanted to be on camera.
Hi Giles, i got myself an ozone Roadster 3, OMG, You weren’t wrong saying i’d notice a big difference from my last wing, nova rota, it comes up so easily, just waiting for the right motor to come up & i”ll be back in the air. Defo going micro avionics for headset.
Had my Microavionics headset and helmet since 2007. So looking for a completely new setup - love the idea of Bluetooth calling. It must be a must now. Giles thanks for the updated information with Eddie.
@@GolfFoxtrot22 Hi both. I bought my comms and helmets from Microavionics this year, and found Eddie to be very helpful in dealing with what probably seemed some rather daft questions. He has the patience of a saint, I think. Cheers. John
Thanks Giles, it is nice to see the people behind the product. I have been considering ordering one from Aviator ever since I completed my training there.
Finally got around to watching this, thanks for filming, they seem like a great British company. I've only ever seen them in one other You Tube film, nowhere else. Superb support for UK users too. I'll share this with my buddies 😊👍
MicroAvionics are now sold by AviatorPPGand have been around the microlight world for a while. I've been really impressed with the support and functionality of my PM100. I also have one of their microlight full helmets for flying the twinset aircraft.
Great video Giles, I have to stuff foam behind my headsets to seal properly and my gel pads are leaking! I didn't know they did extra thick ones so I'll be ordering a set! Keep up the good work.
Amazing to see a behind the scenes I knew you used a microavionics headset so I'd like to think I have been following for a while lol But that would be class flying high in the sky with music playing

Have a dream. I couldn't find the funds either. I had a cleaning job that I saved up to keep my licence going. You seem very determined, keep that passion.
The problem with making videos like the one you suggested is that it's only for a specific Gopro as all the camera settings and and mic levels are different.
I really should talk to them about a GA headset for the KUB to see if I can get away from the mask, that said I do like the noise reduction on my head set.
I have a MA helmet and head set with Blue Tooth. Will my six month old Blue Tooth do the call like that? Is this a new Blue Tooth you are showing us or just how the old one works? Two criticisms I have: 1) I wish there was a led light telling me I was charging the head set and telling me it was fully charged. 2) I wish there was a led light on the out side of the ear cup. I've put my helmet away, on more then one occasion, and forgot to turn it off because the power on led is located on the inside of the ear cup and a bit hard to see. Other than these two issues, I love my helmet. Thanks for another great video.
Love this video! I've recently replaced my 2013 headset with a new one, good to see the development is still going strong! I had no idea there is voice activation in the Pm100, do the new sets come with this as standard?
G'day Giles. If I wanted to buy the set-up you have in this video how much would it be and how long do you think I'd have to wait. Love ❤ your videos by the way.
Hello Martin, I can't personally answer the purchase question but if you drop MicroAvionics a message, I think I have a link in my description. I'm glad you are enjoying the videos, they very much a passion for sharing my joy of all things aviation and flying.
Hi Giles how you doing im arfter the wind muff for boom mic you designed how do i get one and who do i pay ive sorted the bluetooth on headset and had brilliant time at the pmc last weekend had chat with your lady friend with the peebee realy nice people cant wait for the next one thank you Giles
@@GolfFoxtrot22 I did Giles thank you. Only sorry I didn't fly in but weather was a bit strong for this old man. Haven't managed to make any fly-ins this year bother it!
It drives me nuts that calls come in whilst flying without any notice..I.e it doesn’t beep, or have a ringtone etc before connecting the call, and then the call volume is so low you can hardly hear.
Eddie from MA here. I guess you have an older version of Bluetooth. We are limited by the availability of Bluetooth modules. We changed about 9 months ago to a new model of Bluetooth and this has a digital audio processor, so clearer telephone calls. Also increased BT audio. We would design our own BT module from scratch, but the cost would be so high you would not buy the headset, and hence we have to use certified modules from large US companies.
@@eddiecartwright3159 it's about 14/15 months old, so not very old really. It's a shame, cos I love everything else about the comms. I wish I'd been made aware though of this downside though.. Cos it means I can't use the headset for phone comms really.
@@eddiecartwright3159 Thanks! It works fine if I initiate the call from my phone so I'm happy with it. I was just joking with Giles. May USA customers send in their helmets to the local distributor for a tune up?
@@DougBow96 What sort of tune up are you requiring? We have a person in the US who could do work, but maybe this is something I need to put feelers out for an engineer. Any engineers out there reading this??
@@GolfFoxtrot22 no I was trying to and it wouldn't pair to the phone. The headset showed up as 3 different devices 2 with letters and numbers like gibberish then the 3rd as BCL419 or something like that before I gave up.

@@joyfulpyro2589 have you tried to EMAIL MicroAvionics directly, they do respond quickly. I don't work for them, I'm just a product user.

Have you tried going somewhere where there isn't any other Bluetooth devices nearby? Just trying to help.

Morning buddy how our you I've just got the micro avionics head set with Bluetooth I can connect to phone and other devices but my 8 inch Samsung tablet will not connect it shows up as micro avionics then changes to LE_BM62_DSPKv2.1.3 MCHP the rest I need the headset on tablet is I run gaggle on it and I can see it in flight hahaha be great if you have any idea on the problem thanks Giles
Think you right Giles but will call this morning who do I talk to at micro avionics thank you for you time getting back to me always trust you for a reply thanks again
Great stuff... annoying though that with Brexit, it's a right pain now to order from the UK to the EU. After a few bad experiences with purchases from other UK companies, I'm giving up.
@@eddiecartwright3159 G'day Eddie. I'm interested in the set-up Giles has for my microlight in Australia. As I've asked . How much and availability to australia.
@@GolfFoxtrot22 Shipping isn't the problem (even with the COVID supply chain issues). It's the fact that the UK is now a third country, and didn't even get any basic customs arrangements. Buying from the UK is for all intents and purposes the same as buying from Nigeria, Costa Rica or Cambodia. That means customs hold ups, unpredictable charges and valuation processes, and more time spent on sorting out clearance. It'll sort itself out eventually but damage is being done.

Just watching this and realise that I know Eddie from when we were kids! I used to deliver the newspapers to his parents house too! Hi Eddie! (Ross)
HI Ross, I sent a copy of this comment to Eddie so he knows it is here. It's clearly a small world.
I definitely noticed your comms were clearer when we flew DM the other week. Whatever Eddie did has made a real difference.
I'll have to have a look at my settings.
I hope the mic takes away the pulsing noise in vlogs, I think Tucker has the best audio so far Ive heard
Yes he does have the best sound quality going but that is specifically for vlogging. The PM100 is an aviation headset that does significantly more, vlogging is a plus for me. When you say pulsing noise, I'm not sur what you mean?

Hi Terry, it's great that Eddie is a pilot and paramotorist as well, so he knows what we need.
Such a cool operation!
This was the day you called and spoke to Eddie. It was great to see behind the scenes.
A very nice and very behind the scenes video Giles.👍
A very typical British Cottage industry. Although they are just about to move to bigger premises. Eddie is a pilot so knows what is needed.
I like the idea of the call in flight voice command.
If only I had siri. It makes crackingly clear calls though.
@@GolfFoxtrot22 could you not ask Google to make the calls ?
@@justharryjohnson7250 I'll have a look into it.
(Andres) best aviation videos in GF22 as always. The parajet lite trike review… missing that 😁
I'm not sure that will happen, I don't own a paramotor.
fascinating! great to see companies innovating and supplying our sport!

Hi Michael, Eddie is a very clever man, I just use the kit. I'm assuming you have a MA headset?
@@GolfFoxtrot22 Yes I do and I may look at sending it in for the new mic and mainly for a removable radio connection.

Keep up the good work.
Hello 'The REAL Q', glad the video helped. They are so friendly and helpful there.
Great vid -- love my MA headset - was well worth the money 👍
Wishing I had got the Vloging update.
The vlog mod has certainly made my job easier. You can get a line out from the connector at the back to go the go pro.
