HUGHES 530 F - MCDONNELL 530 F

Diseñado para el trabajo en altas altitudes y altas temperaturas el MD 530 F es la ultima versión del modelo original del Hughes 500, con motor mas potente (Rolls-Royce 250 C30 de 650 SHP). Posee un rotor principal con palas 15 cm. mas largas que el MD 500E , un cono de cola extendido en 21 cm. aproximadamente y un rotor de cola mas largo para proveerlo de mayor control.

The MD 530F is engineered to meet your requirements for hot-day, high-altitude operation. Equipped with the 650 shp Allison 250-C30 engine, the MD 530F operates more effectively in hot, high environments than other helicopters in its class.

In a typical working configuration, at a design gross weight of 3,100 lb (1406 kg) and a useful load of over 1,509 lb (684 kg), it can hover out-of-ground effect at 11,600 ft (3536 m) ISA + 20°C. Its cruise speed follows the tradition of the MD 500E...making it one of the fastest helicopters in its class. An optional cargo hook rated for 2,000 lb (907 kg) provides outstanding external load capability. Internal loading is made easy by the flat aft cargo compartment floor of the helicopter.

The MD 530F’s high altitude lift capability is achieved by main-rotor blades six inches longer than the MD 500E. The tailboom is extended eight inches and the tail rotor blades have been lengthened to provide increased thrust and directional control at high altitudes.
