When I told Lightspeed about it, they even took that opportunity to do some serious research and to use what they learned to build in even better electrical noise resistance. In other words, it was a noisy radio affecting the headset (and other headsets of all brands), not the Lightspeed headset itself. In the aircraft I flew them in, there was no electrical noise except when we flew with a very, very noisy/leaky UAT ADS-B out transmitter. It's similar in size and shape to the Sierra, but as pointed out already it's not just a wireless Sierra. The Tango is an excellent headset and if your desire is a wireless solution, it delivers. I flew with the Tango several times very early on in both a Cherokee and the RV-12. I've flown with all the current and multiple-generations-back Lightspeed headsets in a variety of aircraft. The difference is in design and of course the fact there aren't any more cords getting in the way. Compared to my Zulu 2's, there is no difference in Nose Canelling. The Noise Cancelling Function is the same as the Zulu. According to Ligthspeed, the Tangos are NOT Sierras's modified to be cordless. The Tangos - IN MY OPINION (and I really don't care what others may think) are great for my flying needs. I fall into the latter, when I see a benefit. I just have to remember to take the spare batteries.Īs with all new technology, there will be the nay-sayers, as well as those who will eagerly adapt the new gear. IF I need to take my headsets into someone else's airplane, I have the control modules with the plugs. I've now got two pairs of Zulus that are gathering dust, along with my 30+ year old David Clarks. Overall, I will use the Tango in my RV-9A all the time. The wife loves that.įor the poster indicating they picked up noise - all handsets systems will pick up noise if the wiring isn't done properly - shielding connected to a proper ground, etc. The Bluetooth functionality nicely removes cable clutter from the cockpit. Take the depleted battery and put it into the LEMO module for recharging. When necessary, simply open the charging port and remove the battery to install a fresh battery into the headset. Now I've the LEMO module wired into my RV-9A and it charges a battery for the headset. After some time, I found that instead of carrying a couple of batteries, Lightspeed came out with a modification that permits the LEMO version to charge a battery for the headset while using system power for the control module. they work great in any aircraft that uses conventional plugs. I originally purchased the standard plug control units. Let's get to the OP's question - I have the Tangos - two pair.
