Heliwagon

Heliwagon makes an electric helicopter landing dolly. The dolly is controlled by a wireless remote, so one person can move a helicopter on the ground. The company says each Heliwagon is made in the United States.

The dolly has a weight capacity of 9,000 pounds. It moves forward at up to 200 feet per minute. The wireless remote has up to 500 feet of range, is FCC approved, and can be used with one hand or tethered.

The pilot or ground crew member has full walk-around visibility and positive control during movement. The company says the dolly maneuvers easily in tight areas and can be stored in small spaces.

The dolly runs on commercial grade batteries for over four hours of continuous use. An onboard charger plugs into 110 volt or 240 volt outlets. A two inch receiver hitch lets the dolly be towed if needed.

The 17 inch low profile deck has a powder coated frame and diamond plate sides. Its non-skid polyurethane surface resists fuels, hydraulic fluids and other chemicals. Four corner LED lights and full underneath LED lighting add visibility at night.

The Heliwagon is designed for light to mid-sized skid helicopters. It comes in three sizes: 14 by 14 feet for smaller skid helicopters, 14 by 16 feet for lighter, wider helicopters, and 16 by 16 feet for larger helicopters. Customers can add a logo or lights.

The company says the dolly removes the need for tugs and tows, and reduces hangar rash. Buyers can request a quote online or call the office. The team walks buyers through the purchase, builds each unit to order, and offers support after the sale. The site has an image gallery, a video gallery and a testimonials page. Its news includes articles on winterizing ground handling and on preventing hangar rash.
