SUPPORT PRODUCTS

Allsopp Helikites Ltd provides everything needed to fly, maintain and store Helikites. Since the Helikite was designed and patented by Sandy Allsopp in 1993, Allsopp Helikites Ltd has designed many types of Helikite to suit our customers. The quality of workmanship, materials and attention to detail is very high to ensure that Helikites can endure long periods flying steadily in the sort of foul weather that grounds normal aerostats. Our support products are normally designed or modified in-house, based on experience of flying Helikites in many different environments and circumstances. They enhance the ease and cost-effectiveness of Helikite operation and can provide capabilities that are not available elsewhere.
