History and construction

The CH-12 is a light two-seat helicopter for the civil market. It is sold as a kit and reflects the great experience Augusto Cicaré and his development team have gained over time in the development of light helicopters. The helicopter is partly made of composite materials and can be powered either by a Subaru EJ25 with 121 kW or by a Lycoming HIO-360-G1A with 134 kW, which drives a main rotor made of composite materials. The two-person crew sit next to each other in a closed cabin.
