Luminator Aerospace’s High-Powered Searchlight, The Orion, and accompanying Hand Control Unit offer high-performance and multi-function capability in a single integrated design. Solid state technology is incorporated throughout and offers significant increases in reliability, performance, and ease of installation. All power management, control, and system integration circuitry, including active slaving capability for onboard FLIR Camera Systems, Mapping Systems, and/or Helmet Sight Systems, is integrated into the unit itself eliminating the need for any additional remote junction boxes and intermediate cabling. The unit is easily operated via up to two independent hand control units or remote features added to the cyclic or collective grips, besides being connected to any digital map and/or tracking system via a built-in RS422 interface.
